The Billion Pound-O-Gram

Y'know how once a number goes above a million it's very hard to work out whether it's a lot or not?So 5 billion spent on aid sounds like a lot, until compared to Roman Abramovich's 7 billion.
And 1 billion lost to tax fraud could be a huge amount, until you compare to 12 billion lost to tax havens...
There are plenty of fun and games of that kind to be had with The Billion Pound-O-Gram.

Just (whatever you do) don't start playing around with which boxes fit into all the bank bail out related stuff or you might get seriously angry.
