Inconsistencies in naming confuse me.

If you have a million dollars you'd be a millionaire. If you had a billion dollars, a billionaire, a trillion dollars a trillionaire but if you had a thousand trillion dollars you'd be a quadrillionaire? For data it goes kilo, mega, giga, Penta, and exa. Why the disconnect?

That's an interesting point, though meeting a meganair or giganair doesn't have the same ring to it. (And technically it would have to be a megadollarair or gigapoundair.)

@NerdyPotato but if it was in Philippine pesos we'd all be millionaires.
