So if I own a single dollar and tell everyone it’s a trillion worth … does that make me rich or am I a fool?

A fool unless you can convince an entire market that it’s a trillion dollars worth.

No, it has to be something more imaginary than a dollar, and someone else has to actually give you a dollar for it while you claim it’s only one trillionth of the amount of imaginary things you could sell to people.
