I've been hitting people with the following: Imagine I give you $100,000 today, tomorrow and every day thereafter. How long until you get tired of getting $100,000 each day? One year? Ten years? How long until money is meaningless to you? How long do you think it would take to reach the billion dollars? 27.4 years.

A billion dollars is 10,000 $100,000s. Some people have hundreds of billions of dollars. It is an absolutely astronomical and stupid number. No one should ever even come anywhere near that level of money. It's way too much power.
