“Gentlemen, a million dollars here, a million dollars there, and suddenly we are talking about real money.”
That has, of course, been updated to be, “A billion dollars here, a billion dollars there, and suddenly we are talking about real money.”
And, maybe you remember Dr. Evil in the Austin Powers movie.
The character, played by Mike Meyers, is going to hold the entire world ransom for “one MILLION dollars.”
When he is told a million dollars really isn’t very much money anymore, he changes his ransom demand to “one hundred BILLION dollars.”
