plus, since almost every company in the world now sells on amazon, and amazon takes a % of every sale, it adds up quickly

coronavirus made amazon the most accessible place to get anything, especially during the grocery shortage with their whole foods acquisition.

not only that, the reason their customer service is so relaxed about returns is because they get a second cut when that item is re-sold. it's literally free money.

Gives me all the more reason to shop for free at Amazon

Man said toptier

post your b****

How much liquid cash and sellable assets outside of Amazon do you think this guy has?

Im sure a lot but probably not as much as you’d expect

Teaches his kids to not be stupid?

Man could have the dumbest kids on earth and would still be fine.

It wouldn’t even be worth his time to pick up a $100 bill from the ground

if bro lost $71 billion he’d still have A HUNDRED BILLION holy f***

inb4 some guy who thinks he smarts says "heh he doesnt actually have 171 billion dollar bills! thus he is much poorer than that...heh...i am so smart..."

Amazon is fire all around tbh

Wouldn’t be surprised if Putin’s is higher tbh

Where is that website that displayed relative wealth?

This is horrible. Shouldn't happen.

For generations? lmao

More like your last name would fade way before the money could end

Put it like this, if you had 1 billion and lived the same life you've always lived for how much generations would 1 billion last?

This why I don’t feel bad about stealing from Amazon.

The truth is that the resurgence of the pandemic is the outcome of a conscious policy, led by the Trump administration but supported by the entire political and media establishment, of subordinating society’s needs to the economic interests of the financial oligarchy.

Over the past three months, more than 115,000 Americans have died from COVID-19 and 45.5 million have become unemployed amid an unprecedented medical, social and economic disaster.

But the story has been very different for the stock market and the American financial oligarchy. In the midst of what the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development calls the worst peacetime economic crisis in a century, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has staged its largest rally in three decades.

The Dow surged 18 percent in the second quarter of this year, its biggest quarterly gain since 1987. The Nasdaq grew even faster, rising 30.6 percent and leaving the index up by 12 percent since the beginning of the year.

The massive growth in stock values has led to an expansion in the wealth of America’s financial oligarchy. Since March 18, the wealth of US billionaires has increased by 20 percent, or $484 billion, according to the Institute for Policy Studies. Between March 18 and June 17, the total net worth of the 640-plus US billionaires jumped from $2.948 trillion to $3.531 trillion.

As a result of the stock market rally, the wealth of the five richest men in America—Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Warren Buffett and Larry Ellison—grew by a total of $101.7 billion, or 26 percent.

The personal fortune of Tesla CEO Elon Musk, the world's highest-paid CEO, has doubled over the course of the past year.

apparently a person spends around 2Ms in their entire life, so basically enough for 500 of your descendants

Too much for 1000 people combined

But money makes money so if you have billions, you can easily just make 2M from the gains of investing.

He’s got at least a billion in cash. He has to

Lmaoo they always come in and say that s***
