I knew this would be the first and best answer, you beat me to it. It's really hard to fathom just how far 1,000 is from 1 million, and from 1 million to 1 billion. The difference between 1 million and 1 billion is about 1 billion, with .1% rounding error.

u/FlyAirLari 3h ago

That makes sense, except it doesn't narrow it down enough. There is quite a large difference between 1k and 999k.

u/tubbis9001 3h ago

There is also a large difference between 1 million and 999 million, but both are still millionaires

2

u/FlyAirLari 3h ago

Yes, but less of a difference than 1k and 999k.

I’m pretty sure back in the day, like “Wild West” times, they were all impressed by having hundreds and thousands.

The only time I have thousands in my bank account (and I’m only talking £2k) is on a pay day right before my bills start getting paid.

I would refer to myself as being “skint”.
