At $464 USD, assuming 90 Ruples per USD and that Rubles are roughly the same dimension as a USD (46490780 or 22) we get 32,572,800 cubic feet or 918,720 cubic meters.
Cargo ship size is usually measured in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), based on the volume of a 20-foot-long (6.1 m) intermodal container. The internal volume of one of these containers is 1,172 cubic feet or 33.2 cubic meters.
Yeah for real. Putin may be a dick, but unlike Trump he is way ahead in the dictator plays and is estimated to be sitting at well over 100 billion USD. 500 million to bail out the US president who would gladly take the U.S. out of NATO for him seems absolutely reasonable.
PSA: it’s not over yet, they have until 25th of March. Don’t discard a boatload of rubles showing up on March 24th.
That or Saudi Riyal. People are going to vote for this guy?
I was curious, so I did the (lazy) math.
1 USD is going for about 90 Rubles currently.
Assuming a Ruble is roughly the size of a USD…
A $1M USD stack made of 100 x $10,000, or 10 x 10 stacks measures 12" across x 13" front to back x approx. 5" tall. That is 780 cubic feet or a bit more than 22 cubic meters.
At $464 USD, assuming 90 Ruples per USD and that Rubles are roughly the same dimension as a USD (46490780 or 22) we get 32,572,800 cubic feet or 918,720 cubic meters.

Assuming a standard container size, it would take 28,710 TEUs to move the entire Trump bond via ship. The maximum TEU of the largest container ship listed on Wikipedia is 24,232, leaving Trump 4478 TEUs, 5,248,216 cubic feet or 143,296 cubic meters, and $72M short.
TL;DR: Even with the biggest boatload of Rubles, Trump would still come up short on the bond.
I’m not sure I agree with you a hundred percent on your police work, there, Lou.
Bake 'em away toys! Amazing what misunderstanding ’ vs " can do.

Oh that’s my birthday. What a good present to have if Letitia James starts selling his shit then.
/RemindMe! In 7 days to wish stinerman a happy birthday.
Like the Alexander Navalny tower, formerly named Trump tower.
