Post things your (least) fav billionaire does.

This used to be the Elon Musk sub, but in an attempt to boost engagement, we have engaged a new pathway.

You can post anything related to billionaires here.

It also helps that she was significantly less wealthy than the tech oligarchs, with "only" half a billion dollars. Which is itself a fucking absurd amount of money, and just goes to show just how fucking far beyond the pale the robber-barons of this new gilded age actually are.

For fucking real - decades upon decades of just HUGE smash hits, not just for herself but also others. And she manages a "measly" half a billion, yet these no-talent fucks who inherit their money end up with billions.

She could have been a billionaire. She chose not to be. Instead, she spent millions helping people.
