kind of cheapens the title when you have to print trillions to make it happen.
..no you don't.
The vast majority of monetary wealth in the world is represented as numbers on a screen, no printing needed.
If you had to print $800b in $100 bills, it would weigh 8 million kilogram (approximately 17,636,980 pounds) and take up 61,648 cubic meters (2,177,600 cubic feet), unrealistically assuming they were packed tight with no gaps, creases, or structures added to keep the enormous weight of it from sinking into the ground.
For context, the US Capitol Building is approximately 1.3m cubic feet, and the heaviest object ever weighed on earth, the Revolving Service Structure (RSS) at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, weighs 5,342,000 pounds.
So yeah, you'd be a bit silly to print his ridiculous dragon's hoard in physical money.
I'm refering to general inflation, not the Idea of printing and walking around with a trillion dollars
