In Idiocracy, in the year 2505, Rita, the prostitute, is handed a wad of bills by a potential client. The top bill is for $10,000,000.
Assuming that that’s roughly $10 in 2005 money, it implies a compound annual inflation rate of only roughly 2.8% over 500 years.
That seems wildly optimistic. Extrapolating a conservative M2 inflation of 8%, $10 in 2005 should be roughly equal to $500,000,000,000,000,000 in 2505.
That is 500 Quadrillion dollars. $500Q for short. https://www.underconsideration.com/speakup/archives/idiocracy_money.jpg
