He's more limited by the data type (number of bits) for the platinum field (and gold/silver/bronze if you want to get technical) than he is by the memory/disk size. As long as you have memory to spare, you can dynamically assign bits to specific fields, but if you can only utilize a maximum number of bits, you can never have values higher than that artificial maximum. In this day and age, you almost always have memory to spare.

Why are you assuming this is all stored in the same row in the DB?
He could just create a new row (new character) and start over again. Why does he need 100 platinum all on one character as opposed to 10plat on 10 characters? This circumvents any data size issues.
