Has anyone else noticed that people are starting to use G instead of K when talking about thousands? (example: $300k is now $300G)

seen people using kk instead of m for million

>> No.11238287

Literally nobody does that

In banking sometimes people write 300m for 300 thousand and 300mm for 300 million. I always thought that was silly but whatever

>>11238287
That's from latin, mille == 1000
A million is 1000*1000 -> mm

>> No.11238380

It doesn't matter how you write it, it's all about how to get it.
