I imagine that comes before a billion. If I had even just $3 million dollars, I think I'd worry less. Or two or even one! Billionaires are another category entirely.

At one million you get worried about losing it.

Yes, but at 3 million you'd probably still know the cost of things.

It's when you get to billions that the dollar is just some abstract concept. If you ever listen to trump talk, its pretty clear knowing the cost of things is a poor mans game.

The dollar. It means way more when you have to choose things to eat in a grocery store and all you have is 5.
