If you worked every single day, making $5,000 a day, from the time Columbus sailed to America, to the time you are reading this tweet, you would STILL not be a billionaire.
You would have less money than Jeff Bezos made in a week.

FYI for those doing the math, there have been 527 years or 192,355 days since Columbus sailed to America, so you would have $961.775mm, still short of a billion dollars.
So you're saying that billionaires created even more value, in far less time, than somebody who created over $5,000 of value per day for 527 years? If so they richly deserve their money.

Seems a little disingenuous. If you did the same math but accounted for saving 20% of it at a 3% ROI compounded, you'd actually be worth $72,983,750,887,310.88 That's $72 trillion.

personally i think billionaires should be lined up and shot. maybe we can give them one chance to surrender all of their money first if we're being nice. but realistically these guys will lie and try to hide their funds, so the bullet is prob the right call
