Large amounts

Every so often, stats are published on the amount of U.S. money in circulation. For those wondering, the amount as of June 2018 is $1.67 TRILLION dollars. That's 1,000,000,000,000, also know as 10 to the 12th power (one followed by 12 zeros), or one million million.

I love huge numbers, ones so big you can barely wrap your head around them 😍 Recently, I was thinking of the largest real number I can think of (quadrillion) and what sequence of numbers comes after that. I've posted them below in case you're curious, too.

• Million (aka 10⁶)
• Billion (10⁹)
• Trillion (10¹²)
• Quadrillion (10¹⁵)
• Quintillion (10¹⁸)
• Sextillion (10²¹)
• Septillion (10²⁴)
• Octillion (10²⁷)
• Nonillion (10³⁰)
• Decillion (10³³)
• Novemdecillion (10⁶⁰)
• Quinseptuagintillion (10²²⁸!)
