How could he have surpassed billy if it comes out as less when converted? Either he did or didn't. The world market doesn't hinge on the US dollar. anyway, blah

I have a question!!!

How much is the catholic church worth? I'd guess over a trillion with all their real estate and such. But, I've never actually heard a figure put forth so it's all just musing.

The Googol is actually less than the centillion. Look at it:
"100 centillion 1,000 followed by 100 groups of three zeros
One GOOGOL is a ONE followed by 100 zeroes."

Centillion is 130 times bigger.

(1000+100*3=1300 zeroes)

Ofcourse the Googolplex is still the biggest one...
