[cj's dad]

Imagiine paying back a debt of this amount !!

How long do you think it would take if you could somehow pay back $1000 per second ??

hmmmm, lets see:

in 1 minute you have paid back $60,000

in 1 hour, $3,6000,000 (3 million+)

in 1 day, $86,400,000 (86 million +)

in 1 year, $31,536,000,000 (31 billion+)



and to pay back that 1 Trillion ???????








31+ years !!!!!
