A pound of twenties.

dudewithasock · February 27, 2006, 6:07pm

I’ve heard this expression many times before.

“I’d like a pound of twenties.”

“How about a pound of twenties?”

“A pound of twenties would be nice.”

My question to you, is how much exactly is a pound of twenty dollar bills?

Does anyone actually know?

I won’t know if you’re right or wrong, I have no idea.

I bet it’s a lot, though.

It’s enough to buy a 24" Torker DX, if that’s what you want to know.

dudewithasock · February 27, 2006, 6:14pm

Psh, if I had an actual pound of twenties, I’d buy like six of them. And five 45" big wheels.

And a pony.

Why six? And why not a penguin instead of a pony?

dudewithasock · February 27, 2006, 6:16pm

Six, so if I break one, I got 5 more for backups. And I’d powdercoat them all different colors of the rainbow (except indigo cause I don’t believe in that color) so I could have a choice which one to turn brown and muddy each day.

And a penguin? Pffft.

hey dude why would you buy this uni if you had a pound of 20s

forrestunifreak · February 27, 2006, 6:20pm

I would settle for just a twenty. I won’t even get THAT!

dudewithasock · February 27, 2006, 6:22pm

Yowza.

That is one SWEET ride.

Crazy frame.

I bet its a lot, but I’ve never heard that phrase before.

You know, a pund of ones wouldn’t be too shabby.

trials_uni · February 27, 2006, 6:28pm

i think you over shot it a bit…

ok people i did some research…any bill of american currency has a weight of one gram…so if there are 454 grams ina pound then a pound of ones is $454 a pound of 5s is $2120 a pound of 10s is $4540 a pound of 20s is $9080 a pound of 50s is$22,700 and a pound of 100s is $45,400
