Just eight billionaires accounted for a quarter of the gains, led by Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Larry Ellison and Larry Page
The richest 500 individuals in the world added a record $2.2tn to their wealth in 2025, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with just eight billionaires accounting for a quarter of the gains.
The gains increased their collective net worth to $11.9tn, bolstered by billionaire Donald Trump’s 2024 election victory and booming markets in cryptocurrencies, equities and metals.
Around a quarter of the gains were attributed to eight billionaires, including Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Oracle chair Larry Ellison and Alphabet Inc co-founder Larry Page, though 2024 saw more concentrated net worth gains with the same eight billionaires making up 43% of total net worth gains for the wealthiest 500 individuals in the world.
everyone started dreaming while their sourdough starter fermented - then luigi happened and the gloves came off.
I’m personally exhausted by all the talk with no general strike action - individualism killed the democracy star (USA is actually a republic but nobody’s ready to have that conversation)
Aaron Russo was ahead of his time (and got got as a result IMO): https://odysee.com/AmericanFormOfGovernment:6
Nazi’s and facists are far left?lol this is propaganda and misinformation. You really believe that being “represented” by people who are literally owned by Israel and the oligarchs is better than democracy? Look around that’s easy to debunk. Believing this nonsense would be a good example of falling into the tankie mindset.
Every “conservative” I’ve ever talked to is ready to explain the federal reserve, democracy vs republic and some other generally useless information considering the potus is a felonious rapist.
What an individualistic reply. You’re exactly the type of person who needs to watch that video. It’s not very long and does a great job at explaining why democracy (majority rules) is dangerous. Probably best not to assign everyone you meet to one of the two oligarch parties, too.
I only know they are “conservative” because they can’t shut the fuck up about it. IMO it’s a guilty conscience but honestly i don’t care
