There ate sixty seconds in a minute.

There are 1,440 minutes in a day.

For purposes of this discussion, there are thirty days in a month.

It's gonna take us 18 months to reduce the troop level to somewhere between 30,000 to 50,000 American troops on the ground in Iraq.

The occupations are costing us around $5,000 a second.

60 * 1140 * 30 * 18 * 5000 = 233280000000
