billionaire update
Just an FYI for those that have been programmed all your lives to say "the rich get richer and the poor get poorer." Now, I'm sure I'll get some sort of charts and graphs from the left on this one, but there are some indisputable facts in this article.
1. There are fewer billionaires now than there were last year (or the prior year, or the year before that).
2. The richest man in the world (and also the largest charitable contributor) has less than half as much money as he had 5 years ago.
3. For the first time in history, a black woman is a billionaire. And no, she wasn't born rich.
Granted, these are small snapshots of the big picture, but I just think this side of the story occasionally has to be pointed out. Flame away.
