The 400 richest people in America are having a rollicking time in the roaring 2020s. In all, they are worth a record $5.4 trillion, up nearly $1 trillion from last year. A dozen have $100 billion-plus fortunes, also a record. And admission to this elite club is pricier than ever: A minimum net worth of $3.3 billion is required, up $400 million since 2023. Despite the high bar, 23 newcomers managed to break into the ranks, having grown their fortunes in everything from mundane plastic pipes to cutting-edge artificial intelligence.

I don’t wish harm on anyone, and I say that as a Christian. But the world will be a better place when that power-hungry motherfricker is finally gone.

Damn, Ellison is on the move. He used to be way lower down.

Shekelberg has donated hundreds of millions of dollars to anti-2A lobby groups and Democratic politicians. He’s arguably as bad as George Soros

Just the top few hundred wealthiest people adding a trillion dollars a year --not even mentioning the next few thousand of them -- sure sheds a lot of light on discussions about the middle class shrinking.

Pretty funny seeing Balmer ahead of Gates now

Warren buffet convinced bill gates to diversify in the early 90s rather than be all Microsoft stock so he sold a bunch
He’d be a trillionaire by now if he had held his original stake
