Hi, Sorry that it isn't the right group for such a question, but... Is there anybody using the Paypal instant notification, for online selling ? We would need some information that we can't get by Paypal (48 hours seem not enough for their support to reply !) Thanks, MC --

James, $10B can be imagined as 1,000,000 (ONE MILLION) bank rolls, each of $10,000 (100 bank notes of $100 each). Can your largest room in your house admit so many bank rolls of bank notes? :-) Probably, yes. Your room can admit $10 BILLION USD. :-) So that seems not so much money there... :-)
