 One piece of context to add... when was this conversation had in that timeline? 
 https://youtu.be/v4He1m2a5jg
The video was published in 2010 on YouTube and they talked about the 2008 crisis. So it had happened somewhere between that.  
 Also in the video they are talking about [Monetary Base](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/BOGMBASE) and not [Total Assets](https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/WALCL) depicted in the video.  
 There are two best times to plant a tree - 20 years ago and today. 
 Hahahahaha 
 Its frightening how stupid the people in charge really are.

Most people can’t comprehend the difference between a Billion and a Trillion.

FUN FACT:
-It takes about 11 days to count to a million 
-It takes about 31 years to count to a billion. 
-It takes 31,000 YEARS to count to a trillion.

Think about that. 
 I think perhaps even longer. I've lost count at least 5 times. Last time I made it to 1284. Wife asked if I wanted a coffee. Boy was I mad.  
 I think that’s if you could say a number a second. Once you get in the millions it starts slowing down how fast you can say the number. 
 Just a thought experiment about seconds not counting
