Ukraine got 40 BILLION. $300x130,000 is only 39 MILLION, Hombre.
Unless you meant to say $300k x 130,000 is not EXACTLY 40billion, in which case, who cares. Round numbers are easier to communicate, there is also not likely EXACTLY 130,000 schools.
I remember reading many years back that the reason things are always priced for like $12.99 and such is that in the event of haggling it will cause someone to think on the small scale instead of the big scale, throws it off in their head.
If something's $13 you might say "How about $10?" if something's $12.99 you might just say "how about $12?" Granted haggling isn't as much of an American custom, I have to deal with a lot of foreigners in my businesses so am used to adjusting my negotiating tactics.
But yeah, what you're saying is sound and the other dude not paying that good of attention (his username checks out!), the twat also covered their ass by using the term "over" as it left a whole billion.

your common core math doesn't add up....
