> A centibillionaire (prefix: centi- from Latin centum 'hundred' and billionaire)[2] is an individual whose net worth is at least 100 billion units of a given currency, typically USD.

I agree it's weird - I would also have expected it to mean 1/100 of a billion, like a centimeter means 1/100th of a meter. I assume it's a term made up by an american or british person.
