Do some arithmetic. Unless the price of gold shot up to, say, $1,736 a Troy Ounce overnight without anyone noticing, even if you determined you were looking at gold (you're not, by the way), 48,000# isn't anywhere near worth $1,000,000,000.00

That 48,000# was from was my mistaken 100# per bar estimate for EACH pallet, not the entire room.

Okay, 48,000 pounds is 768,000 ounces @ $522 per ounce equals $400,896,000...
Not a billion, but I'd take it in a pinch!
