Some simple math for y’all to use.

Here’s a fun hypothetical: You make 1,000 dollars a day. In a year, 365,250 (accounting for leap years) In a decade, 3,652,500 In a century, 36,525,000 Let’s change the hypothetical, 1,000/hour 24 hours a day. Simple math, multiply our last result by 24. 36,525,000 x 24 = 876,600,000 If you make 1,000 dollars an hour, unbroken, for a century, you still aren’t a billionaire. Nobody in human history has or ever will deserve that wealth. No amount of showboating or “philanthropy” justifies it (Looking at you Bill Gates) Every day a billionaire continues to be a billionaire is an absurd crime given the good those resources could do.


Here’s a fun hypothetical: You make 1,000 dollars a day.

In a year, 365,250 (accounting for leap years)

In a decade, 3,652,500

In a century, 36,525,000

Let’s change the hypothetical, 1,000/hour 24 hours a day.

Simple math, multiply our last result by 24.

36,525,000 x 24 = 876,600,000

If you make 1,000 dollars an hour, unbroken, for a century, you still aren’t a billionaire.

Nobody in human history has or ever will deserve that wealth. No amount of showboating or “philanthropy” justifies it (Looking at you Bill Gates) Every day a billionaire continues to be a billionaire is an absurd crime given the good those resources could do.
