Let's assume our trillionaire has his money in $10,000 bills. Each bill is 6 x 2.5 and 1/100th of an inch thick. His mattress is 5' x 8'. His mattress would be perched on a pile of bills 2,170 feet high! In order to reduce the height of the pile to one foot, he'd need a mattress 294 feet square.

That's some mattress!
