I would buy 21 trillion lotto tickets. The jackpot is up to 45 million right now. With that many tickets my chances of winning would be a cinch.

am having trouble visualising 13 trillion pound coins. If I actually did have that much money I would keep £10,000,000 to live out my days in comfort, and use the rest to fund alternative energy research, provide medical care, help disabled people, homeless people, jobless people and victims of violence .

Brilliant words Fel'!!! So agree, too much greed in this damn world anyway, as this proves!!!! The end is nigh............only ourselves to blame! :twisted: :wink:

Maybe we could start a political party. Surely we couldn't do any worse than the current lot. I think we could buy an election win with that sort of cash.

Not British Pound Sterling, or even coins, but here is a site that will show you what a trillion US Dollars looks like.

Just not sure why there is a hologram of a (hairless) image of Jesus on the first few examples. :shock: :lol: Is that some sort of an official endorsement? :shock: How much would Jesus have? :wink:
