How much is $100 Million?

First of all, I know that this is an old video, and some of you may have seen it already, but it provides a good visual reference point when trying to wrap your head around really big numbers.  The video refers to the $100 Million in budget cuts that President Obama promised last year when he was pushing Congress to pass his so-called "stimulus package."  I like not only the way this guy explains the numbers, but also the general piled-up nature of his apartment.  A man who thinks about the budget obviously has to give up time that would otherwise be devoted to housework.
