Most people know how long a second is....

1 million seconds = aprox. 11 days

1 billion seconds = aprox. 33 years

1 trillion seconds = aprox. 33,000 years

The human race has been around for aprox. 6 trillion seconds..

The amount of money it is guestimated the government owes is aprox. 12
trillion dollars.

Twice as long as the human race has been around...

hope helps....have fun....sno
