i'm quite sure that if you replace the "t" in "trillion" with a "b," you get a "brillion"

which also sounds like a lot, only it's really, really shiny

Dump never went to class. I am sure he paid someone to do the work for him.

He was obviously out sick every day at Wharton.

All very well but it's still confusing that an American 'Trillion' is an actual billion (bi-million), & an American 'Billion' is an actual milliard (from 'mille' French thousand, & said to be referred to as 'yards' (like our 3 feet, but 1000^3). I've never understood why the devaluation was allowed.

(Ancient) English major -- who at this late stage of her life wishes she'd included more practical courses in college -- here: Thank you for the brilliant mental visual aid on Bs and Ts!

Why has no one written about Penn graduating him?

Think of how many were rejected that would’ve been better choices; smarter, of higher character, with integrity, etc.

It makes me think the whole Ivy League thing is nothing but a scam for the rich.

The Wharton narrative is full of holes. Makes me ill. He did attend specific real estate classes offered by the finance department at Penn, which is part of Wharton, but he did not get a BBA or and MBA. And daddy paid for his transfer from Fordham. He was not accepted.
