It passed my comprehension years ago. <g>
$516 trillion is about 7 times total world GDP.

Seriously though, the next one after trillion is quadrillion... and just for the helluvit here's one of my scratch charts that shows M3 plus most forms of credit plus just the US derivatives reported by the Treasury (US derivatives total about $152 trillion currently). It only goes back to 1992 since that's when the Treasury started reporting them
