@@AWSOMzombie well, if it was crazy more than that he would probably use a different example. i did a 10 second google search and on wikipedia Lichtenstein is listed with a GDP of 7.365 billion USD and the next highest county is Montenegro with 8.010 billion. So its probably somewhere in between the two.
You are aware that money doesn't just vanish when spent right? They aren't feeding it into the teleporter machine. It cycles back into the economy, so in this case the cost is going to either the electrical company powering their facilities, or the company providing the materials required to operate the teleporter, or the maintenance crews the keep the machine in working order. Either way, the economy would boom as a result, not falter. The only suffering caused by that money being spent is to the ones spending it, so Cecil's organization. I imagine if they use it in the ways portrayed, they can afford it.
This added context has made that conversation with Debbie about money a billion times funnier because she's like "i dont wanna feel like I owe you money anymore" and "dont waste money on me spend it on the people Chicago" And then Cecil is like "....okay" then proceeds to spend $7.6 billion on instantly travelling the equivalent distance of a half an hour car ride.
"I could have spent two teleportations' worth of money on Chicago and it'd be right back how it was the hour before Nolan started tossing Mark around. But by all means, feel free to give up our bargaining chip."
@@KanderUdonI reckon it's pretty damn clear the comics can't be used for details in the show by now with Asshole Amber, that one old bitch instead of conquest and other stuff I couldn't be fucked to mention rn
Ok, but if you ask me, the viability of it at $7 billion is still funny. Some other commenter mentioned that this video's total is still only 1/6th of the US defense budget. Just the defense budget, not the overall budget, plus if you consider that the US in this has invented teleporters and stuff, I'd say it's safe to assume that the economy, taxes, and the budget have all increased.
For those who don’t know, Cecil spent $117,760,000,000 in the first season on teleporting so add that to the second season amount $139,840,000,000, Cecil has spent 256.6 BILLION DOLLARS. Yo is Invincible’s universe going through a Great Depression right now? There ain’t no way the government isn’t laundering money right now💀
The USA budget for 2024 was 6.752 Trillion dollars. This means that 2.07% of the entire yearly budget of the USA in this show is spent entirely on Cecils teleportation. Also keep in mind that this is only counting the number of times we SEE him teleport. If we account for all the times we don't see him this can easily reach into the 15% or even higher than 30%. JUST HOW VALUABLE IS THIS GUY TO THE GOVERNMENT?!!?
The GDA isn't owned by America, it's supposed to be supported by most countries in the world. Iirc he had a line in the comics saying he is higher than America's president. So he is pretty important.
@@Geegs he has grounds too. Immortal was already a hero knight in medieval times, and has been superpowered immortal for basically the entirety of human history. Whose to say superpowered individuals hasn't existed for longer? GDA wasn't just for external threats but overall existential threats. And every generation born there is a batch of which each are able to overrun human countries by their own, if not a threat to the entire world. Alien threats were a big bonus.
I wonder if that money i just directly converted to power, or if they need some exotically rare ingredients like metallic hydrogen from Jupiter's core 😆
I mean he is just lazy at this point. Just take an helicopter or drive up there. This is tax payer money use it to fix the damage after every fight not teleport.
@@jfoster8624Now I wonder would vultramite durability help them survive if cecil tries to teleport inside one. Also why not just teleport a big ass cinder block inside them if it won't
@kolyashinkarev7366 I'd imagine he can't telaport objects inside anyone due to accuracy and I'm sure it wouldn't kill a viltrumite unless it was a quantum weapon.
@@jfoster8624 well, you can beat the first problem by teleporting a REALLY big cinder block, like 100 meter wide, he can do that because he could teleport that big monster in season one, but yeah, it proly wouldn't kill a vultramite
7:01 - Cecil: "Mark...look at me. When Nolan killed someone while he was here, whether it was the Guardians or those around when you fought him, he did it to prove a point. He didn't care about those people. And even after what you said happened on Thraxa, I'm sure he still has a ways to go. But from what you've said, it was one moment where you lost control. It's okay to beat yourself over what you did to Angstrom, I wouldn't want to see it happen again, and frankly...it makes you more human than your father. But please hear me when I say you did the right thing. Either you were going to kill him, or he was going to kill you and your family. Just...promise me you won't take too long to get over it."
Something to keep in mind. This story is older than the show. He specified the number in the comics. And it's kind of assumed the reason he can use it more and more throughout the story is it becomes cheaper after they develop it more.
2:49 What is the point of a 15 foot long hallway that leads to nothing... other than being a spooky spot for a creepy man to teleport into so as to give his words gravitas?
The comics say that each teleport costs $5 million dollars, so his Lichtenstein comment might just be an off-handed way of saying he has used the teleport function well over 1,000 times since he became the head of the agency. Considering the strategic value of superhumans and his relatively-upstanding morals/judgement elsewhere, it could be considered on par with a CEO abusing a corporate jet.
Is anyone else feeling like the teleportation is secretly just Cecil’s superpower. And calls it technology and is a govement agent instead of a superhero himself to keep a low profile for those he holds close, like his family or something
I love the scene in the comics where he admits it's an addiction and he just can't help himself even though he knows he's horribly wasting truly insane sums of taxpayer money.
Not only is this low balling, due to Cecil saying more than the GEO of Lichtenstein, this is also only accounting for the times WE SEE him teleport. Crazy af
It's possible that his answer of "more than Lichtenstein's GDI" refers to the total cost of all his previous teleports, if we take the comic line that individual teleports cost 5m. If so, then we can divide 7.36b by 5m to find out the minimum number of times he's teleported - since, y'know, he clarified that it was _more_ than 7.36b. That rounds out to at least 1472 teleports. He stopped keeping track afterwards, it seems. One helluva addicting travel method, indeed....
Just remember that for half these guys, Cecil has the ability to contact them online. I will admit that quite a few examples he needed to be there in person (especially during aftermaths), but that doesn’t change the fact that he’s wasting 7 Billion dollars just because he wants to speak in person, and is in a position where he can get away with it.
to be fair, this version of the USA probably spends a lot more on military and secret shit than even our IRL military and if you are the liaison of supeheros and the US government your time might actually just be THAT valuable.
As someone who wears a lot of suits I'd give almost anything for his tie to stay the same length between shots. For all we know he's teleporting between cuts just to mess with it in the mirror.
It's actually the more he uses it the less each TP costs. As the expense is mainly in RnD not operation. For it to cost 7b / activation. That means it's using approximately 4x the US daily power consumption. If so, we would see national blackouts after each use.
I do tend to beleive that he ignored the 'every time' part and is expressing the cost in terms of monthly or yearly costs instead as it lines up better with the comics that way, and also because if it was *that* expensive it would start severely harming other programs and projects. Millions per tp is funny and explains how he can do some on a whim but keeps it ridiculous and very wasteful but *possible* , billons per tp actually starts to cause some problems and it's unlikely he'd even be *able* to do as many as we see. The question *was* 'every time' but it wouldn't be unusual for him to have not answered that part diectly, espetially given his answer is quite flippant
That has to be bs, there is no way he'd be allowed to use that for convenience the way he likes to do if it costs THAT much with every teleport. That would be restricted to emergencies only.
I know this isn't the topic of the video but I love Cecil as a character. He takes the burden of "the ends justifoes the means" and that included being wary of Mark after his father's betrayal. But by the time the final scene happens where they're talking on the roof, it feels like he's saying that because he truly sees that Mark is nothing like what Nolan was. He realized that when he risked his life just to defend his peoples' pride. It wasn't just about defying the Viltrumites, it was about showing them that he won't stop until he's dead; it's a battle of will
My head canon is that Cecil didn't tell the other part of the story. Considering the advanced technologies that they have that the average person doesn't have, they most likely use them to form multiple for-profit businesses that earn money to fund most (if not all) of their operations, especially Cecil's teleportations.
Inflation is a bitch and $5M may end up being too cheap for what it is. Comparing the cost to a small country's budget gives you a sense of expensiveness without giving an actual number, and the quote ages better

To be fair, this is comic books, ain't no way they don't have private *trillionaires* funding their every move.
Strong words coming from a custodes, whose farts are probably more expensive than the entire economic output of the world.

@@michaelchristy506True. Inflation from 2000 to now would make 5 million $9,155,081.30 according to some site I found. Lol
Damn, I didn’t even register the final number. I just remembered how good the show was and I want to go back to watch it.
I love how auto-complete already knew the assignment. There were definitely a lot of other people who wanted to see that figure as well
He did say more than that
And these are *just* the times we see him do it. It's likely way higher when he's offscreen
No worries, lads. Those 51 billion probably went to Israel, given that Cecil is acquainted with the US government. 😂
I think it would be even funnier if Crcil didn’t remember the exact cost anymore. He's done it so much he doesn't care.
In the comics the cost was 5 million per teleport.
I CAN'T MARRY A FISH, I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND.
I like that you perfectly cut it when he teleported at 4:00 Making me almost cough up my soda at that point
He is addicted to that.
And this is just what we can see.
In this universe printing money doesnt cause money to lose its value.
This has made me realize that I’ve almost never seen Cecil walk.
so thats where those trillions went right before 9/11
With a title like this, did anybody else think this video was gonna be more serious than it actually was.
It's not just a machine they built with all that money that teleports him?!
take into account that he has to go backso every time he teleports he teleports back
And these are the times WE saw him teleport.
Bro really said you're not him 💀
