bajillionaire

Comically rich person

A bajillionaire is someone with an absurdly large, unspecified fortune—more than a billionaire, though the amount is deliberately vague and hyperbolic.

The word playfully mocks extreme wealth or expresses childlike wonder at riches: He talks like he's some bajillionaire who never has to check prices.

Variants include gazillionaire and zillionaire.
