When I was growing up, I didn’t even have a concept of a billionaire. I remember considering that to be a millionaire you had to be able to spend a million dollars and still have a million left over. In effect, a person wasn’t a millionaire until they had reached the second million. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire threw me for a loop because the top prize was only a million dollars.
When I was a young teenager I was quite pleased at saving $300 to buy a new bike because after I bought it, I still had just over a hundred dollars left. It was euphoric to have been a hundredaire for a few days.
Not sure why that popped into my head reading your comment, but there you go.
