I can imagine, but don't have, a 12 gram diamond. A 12 gram diamond has a
lot more than a trillion atoms, approximately
602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.
If you do have a trillion dollars remember, a trillion dollars in a European
bank is worth a million times what a trillion dollars in a U.S. bank is
worth.
