What kind of question is this? Lol. The height of a stack of 1,000 one dollar bills measures 4.3 inches. Distance to moon - 15,972,295,680 inches. Division gives us 3,714,487,367 stacks of 1000 dollar bills. Finally, you will spend on average, 371,000,000,000 dollars, which is equivalent to 3.71 * 10^11 or 0.37 trillion dollars. The cost of the trip to the moon was roundabouts 150 billion or 0.15 trillion. You'll end up losing way more.
