How about all the bullshit spread by the TSXV in Reams? Now that is a figure to contend with. I vote for garbillion. That is a gazillion to the squintillion.

A Quadrillion is 10 to the 15th. US.

10^18th is a US Quintillion. One million-million-million.

The European names are tres strange.

 US   -       Europe
Billion -     Milliard
Trillion -    Billion
Quadrillion - Billiard
Quintillion - Trillion


There is a duotrigintillion. It is a sexdecilliard in Europe. (10^99). They used these really large numbers to keep track of the number of reasons women can generate for getting their own way.

A googol by the way is 10^100.

A googolplex is 10^ googol. That is big. Thinking of how big it is takes a while. Half a bottle of warm beer to the man who can tell me the square root of a googolplex. It is big, but apparently still smaller than the gas field in the Utica shale.
