Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg increased their net worth by $96.6 billion and $58.9 billion, respectively, thanks to rising share prices on the Nasdaq
Great.
When’s dinner?
Seems like a totally fair and appropriate system to me. Let poor people starve. Better yet, just hide them somewhere I don’t have to see them. That’d be awesome. /s
I am convinced I’d be a terrible rich asshole. I’d never be able to hold on to that much money considering how fucked up the world is. That said, I have a conscience. Lacking one seems to be a prerequisite.
Hoarding wealth is like any other form.of hoarding. Its a mental illness.
If there was a monkey in the jungle somewhere who had stockpiled enough bananas, through killing other monkeys or other exploitative means, to last a thousand lifetimes and refused to share any, we would study that monkey like crazy to figure out WTF is going on there.
When a person does it and someone points out that its fucked, we say that the person pointing it out is just jealous, and if they only worked harder, they too could be sitting on a banana fortune.
Didn’t their total wealth drop significantly last year because FB and TSLA stock absolutely tanked? So their wealth is only up so much because it was down more and the market is on it’s way back up.
By all means eat the rich and all that, but this doesn’t paint an honest picture for anyone who doesn’t follow the stock market.
Yeah, unopened the post and it’s just “due to riding NASDAQ prices” and it’s like okay. Basically just like saying my wealth increased because house prices rose. It’s not a lie or anything but the title imies there was a change of assets rather than a change of valuation of assets.
lol but inflation is being caused by poor people demanding higher wages, right?
