“A million from a billionaire is akin to you and I reaching deep for $10 bucks.”

I know the Internet has said that a few times, but is it really $10? I’d say a million from a billion is 1/1000th, so for the average family it is like giving $1,000.

I need to move to your average family neighborhood!
Don’t know many in most places that make or even have $1million....... $1000 X 1000 = $1million.

My ten buck was just a metaphor. For an average family making $35k a year that would be $35.
