No doubt about it, it will take a very long time. 1 day has 86,400 seconds, and if you divide 1,000,000 by 86,400, then you'll get how much time it'll take to count 1 million seconds, which is about 11 days. If you want to get 1 billion, then you times 11 by 1,000 (because 1,000,000,000 is 1,000 times bigger than 1,000,000), and the result of this is...
11574 days, or...
1653 weeks, or...
31 years.

1 billion seconds 1 dollar per second, 1 billion dollar bills.
Well, isn't that a lovely question! If we were to count from 1 to 100 billion, and we counted one number every second without stopping, it would take us around 3,170 years to reach 100 billion. Just imagine all the beautiful landscapes we could paint during that time!
It depends on how fast you're counting. Answer: Although lower numbers (1, 2, 3 etc.) can be said in a second or less, larger numbers like 999,999,999 take up to 5 seconds to say. Assuming that an average value would be 4 seconds the time required would be 4 billion seconds if you didn't stop or rest. This is the same as 127 years.
I recall reading that it would take you 3 weeks to count to a million if you counted all day, taking time off to eat and sleep. So to count to a billion would take 1000 times 3 weeks.
1 billion seconds is about 31 years and 215.56 days
