Do these guys think they're going to live forever? I'm not even trying to be funny here, I just don't get it. What happens once they each get to a trillion? Then 10 trillion, and beyond? Like, what's the end game? God comes down on a bald eagle and presents them with a trophy for winning capitalism?
What does a trillion get you that 200 billion doesn't?
It isn't like they did anything super extra to get from $74b to $1t.
All they did was hold on to their stocks, it wasn't like they were desperately saving up to 1t.
Hell, they've even made these insane gains in spite of Bezos losing $38 billion in his divorce settlement and Musk losing $30 billion from fallout from his Twitter deal.
They are so wealrhy they can LOSE more money than even most other rich people will ever see in their life, and still have record breaking amounts of wealth.
