Here's what 50 billion is good for.

Remember, if they hadn't revalued multiple times, that $100 trillion would be $10^27!

They would need one hell of a big note to fit that number of zero on!

The 100 trillion dollar note was issued way back on Jan 16. However, on Feb 2 twelve zeros mysteriously disappeared during the dead of night. Comrades! Zimbabwe's dollar is now worth as much as $336.46(US)!

Get it while it's hot!
