Musk is a Billionaire- I am a Trillionaire!

Some will wonder about this title, but, technically, you can argue that several of us on this site are richer than Elon Musk.

Why?

I have a $100 TRILLION DOLLAR Zimbabwe note. Actually, I bought hundreds of them and they sold out super quickly.

In terms of coolness factor, this is way up there.

You can still get them online and at some coin shops. If someone can post the image on this thread, I’d appreciate it.

I remember seeing pictures of German people throwing straps of German Marks currency onto the fire to heat the house during the Weimar Republic hyper inflation during 1920s. Not sure if they ever printed a 100 trillion mark note though.

I think Zimbabwe has somehow pegged it's new currency to gold? I might be wrong.

I have about a 3-foot by 4-foot picture frame with every single denomination from $1 to $100 trillion. It is very nice to see them all together and framed.
