America's Real Wealthy

 


Eight Americans possess $1.023 trillion dollars.

Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Warren Buffett, and Larry Ellison hold a personal fortune worth $100 billion or more.  Larry Page and Sergey Brin, both of Google have a wealth of $98.6 billion and $95.6 billion respectively.

One trillion dollars equals the collective wealth of a million millionaires. 

There are US states where the entire population holds significantly less than $1 trillion in wealth.

Seven years ago 51 billionaires held personal fortunes worth a combined $1 trillion. Wealth concentration in America has indeed grown.
