A playful, hyperbolic slang term for someone who is fabulously, almost unimaginably rich. 'Bajillion' is itself a humorous indefinitely large number (like 'gazillion' or 'zillion'), so a 'bajillionaire' is someone whose wealth has moved beyond ordinary millionaire or billionaire territory into the realm of cartoonish excess. Used in casual, humorous conversation — you might call someone a bajillionaire in jest or use it to mock the obscene wealth of tech titans. Not pejorative by default; tone is usually light and absurdist.
If I were a bajillionaire, the first thing I'd do is buy back every pair of sneakers I've ever regretted selling.

A humorous slang noun for someone who is fabulously, almost incomprehensibly wealthy. Built on the same pattern as billionaire and trillionaire but with the made-up bajillion indicating a number beyond reckoning. Used with affectionate mockery, envy, or absurdist exaggeration. Sits alongside gazillionaire as a camp way to describe extreme wealth without the precision of actual financial figures. The word is at its most effective when used to describe someone so wealthy that normal financial vocabulary feels inadequate to convey the scale.
After the IPO she told her friends she was basically a bajillionaire, which they all chose to believe.
