I remember way back in the early 1980s when the first Forbes 400 list was published. I think at the time there were maybe seven billionaires on the planet – – or maybe the U.S. – – but it was a really, really big deal to be a billionaire. It was almost unreal. These days? Thanks to inflation and a massive usurpation of wealth from below to above, there are THOUSANDS of these creatures running around.
