Surface Forms

jillionaire singular
jillionaires plural

Morphology

jillionaire = jillion (transparent) = jillion + aire

Formed by the informal numeral 'jillion' plus the productive '-aire' (as in 'millionaire'), yielding an immediately inferable humorous sense of extreme wealth.

Etymology

Jillionaire mixes jillion, a made-up 'very large number', and millionaire, 'a person with a million'. So a jillionaire is a funny way to say someone has an extremely large amount of money.
