I'd just use `long` and have it represent the number of pennies. This gives you 
representation up to long.max, or:

$92,233,720,368,547,758.07

I.e. $92 quadrillion dollars.

The national debt is currently $38 trillion, and would have to increase in size 
by a factor of about 2,421 to overflow.

You're good for the foreseeable future!
