billete - masculine noun (el) - bill. Look up billete in the dictionary

¡Soy rico! ¡Tengo tres billetes de a veinte dólares!
I'm rich! I've got three twenty-dollar bills!

:lol:
another cognate
I've got 3 $20 bills...thats $60 total..that is a lot

bills have another meaning : in spanish is deuda .for example I have to pay all my bills. .

yes bills could mean that too.

ok, thanks. because I was confused.

The possible translate of the sentence would be, Soy rico porque tengo 23 dolares.

It's actually
Soy rico porque tengo sesenta dolares.

Yes, I forget the word bills. I'm sorry.

you didn't forget the bills...it's actually $60 not $23 because there are three $20 bills, and that is a total of $60. you just got the $ amount wrong, that's all. and it's okay. Everyone makes mistakes ;) :)

In Spain billete means ticket--as in theater ticket. Everywhere else the word to use is boleto.
