Tech Rich Get Richer
theodp writes "The economy is improving, at least for the super rich. After two years of declines, the aggregate net worth of the U.S.'s wealthiest 400 citizens leapt 10% in the past year to $995 billion, according to Forbes' annual ranking. The gains are part of a continuing shift in wealth from the East coast to the tech-centric West. Bill Gates capped off a decade in the top spot after his fortune increased by $3B to $46B. Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen held onto 3rd place, his net worth rising $1B to $22B. Amazon's Jeff Bezos, who saw his fortune expand by more than $3B to $5.1B, was the top gainer on the list. And with a measly $1.4B, Jerry Yang of Yahoo! found himself in a 16-way tie for 162nd place."
First?
- Don't mention this slashdot post.
- Try to not speak any english, or at least stick to broken english. Cusswords are OK, but you might consider misspelling them.
- chatter on the channel in your stupid third-world language. if nobody replies, invite some friends.
- privately message everyone on the channel - preferably in your stupid third world language.
Again, I will give you ops if you just follow these simple rules. And make sure to invite your friends." I can't see ever needing more than, say, $2-3 million over the course of my entire life. " ...and it is for this simple reason that you (and I) are miserably, horribly poor.
Windows XP SP2 told me to install third-party software that prevents viruses and protects stability... I chose Ubuntu
...another 23 Bill Gates's and they could throw together and build a space elevator :))
