What about the Morgans and the Rothschilds?
The Rothchilds had a couple billion back in the early 1900's.
I bet they are way ahead of these chump billionaires listed in Forbes magazine.

When the rich get richer, the poor get more poor, and the middle class become the poor. At what point do these billionaires start hiring people and investing in companies that are producing jobs? This whole economic system is upside down.

Warren Buffet is one of the Worlds most generous Philanthropists.. He will give to the poor. Not to worry

But I do get your point.. Money follows money. Whats the alternative? Social Policies? You could get mugged on this site for mentioning any type of equality policy.

The Rothchilds are never mentioned in those reports. EVER.

I remember seeing an interview on Sky News with the head of the Rothschild London family a couple of weeks after the major crash in Sept 2008.. When everywhere was going belly up. He was saying how most banks are on the verge of collapse but they saw it coming and stand to make 2.5 billion pounds profit that quarter (at the time, close to 5 billion dollars).. If it was in the worst quarter in the past century, I wonder how much they are making now??

Last I heard of them officially, they recently became fiscal and strategic economic advisors to the Irish government

wow, these billionaires, instead of helping when they may be the only ones left whp CAN, are instead reaching for their buckets and getting aNOTHER fillup at americas expense? wow im not one to suggest violence but id like to see one of. or all of these guys get robbed in a NONVIOLENT fashion and see someone distribute the money. Lets see for each billion that means each earthling will get about 17cents. or if we only distributed it to americans that would be more like $3 per american, per billion. ok how about you other countries go rob your own billionaires... haha just kidding! if I robbed a billionaire in a nonviolent fashion, OF COURSE id share it all around... except with the gays of course... no just messin around. but this is getting rediculous.. uh let`s see... yep that should be gettin pretty close to 20 posts. sorry if my posts havent had a lot of meaning lately but i still feel it contributed something.

Good point Cabaret, those families are never listed in World's Richest lists, but they have been wealthy for hundreds of years. Definitely not first generation billionaires. I wonder why?

I have a finance degree and have always focused a lot on Buffet's strategies. He is a simple guy, who buy's when he believes companies are undervalued, and only companies in which he can understand the business, i.e. insurance or soft drinks. And with this past economic crisis he cleaned up. Since business' that are still completely good business models were effected negatively, creating an undervalued stock price.

I believe he is a great man of character and value. He lives in Omaha because he believes in getting away from the "grout think" mentality of Wall Street. He isn't flashy or pretend to be something he is not. Read some investment strategy books by him, they are simple because investing is simple. Its the people on Wall Street that want to make the average American think this is some incomprehensible science, when in fact they don't even know what they are getting themselves into, thus the collapses we experience. I specifically recommend one called "The Tao of Warren Buffet" it's not only focused on investing, but his strategies for life. A very good bathroom or coffee table read.
