IF you just "need it to read" in thousands, you can format the cell to
do so. One way:

Format/Cells/Number/Custom #,##0,

What I meant to say is - I need to have the result read in thousands but use
the number found in millions.

Example, my formula result is 521,689,745.04 I need the cell to read
521,690. I need to take away more then just the two decimal places. I need
to take away the two decimal places plus the next three places and round up.
