Move over billionaires. The first trillionaires are on their way.
Five people are expected to amass at least $1 trillion in wealth within the next decade, if current trends continue, according to Oxfam’s annual inequality report, released Sunday. Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, currently the world’s richest person worth more than $430 billion, should cross the mark in just under five years.
He will soon be joined by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Oracle founder Larry Ellison, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and LVMH CEO Bernard Arnault and family.

3 周We watch him launch rockets as casually as one sends a text message, and for a fleeting moment, we dare to think, "If he can, maybe we can too!"?Then, reality taps us on the shoulder, and we sigh into our coffee mugs, resigned to the fact that our "magic button" might still be stuck in production. Envious? No need to ask.?Humans are, after all, creatures of emotion, and nothing stirs the pot of resentment quite like someone else's glittering success. Watching Musk’s fortune expand at a rate that makes Starlink’s internet speeds look sluggish? It’s enough to spark a heartburn that no antacid can touch. The man isn’t just playing the billionaire game—he’s rewriting the rulebook, probably on the back of a napkin while brainstorming Mars colonies. And yet, Musk is a paradox on two legs.

1 个月What an astonishing prediction! The idea that five individuals could reach such extraordinary wealth in just ten years really makes you think about the future landscape of our economy and society. It's fascinating to consider the implications this could have on wealth inequality, innovation, and even philanthropy. Are we witnessing a shift towards a new class of ultra-wealthy influencers who could reshape industries and communities? I'm curious to know, what strategies do you think these future trillionaires might employ to manage such immense wealth responsibly?

1 个月"...first trillionaires are on...." Splendid. These are movers of influence. They must have affected lives positively but at that they have help humanity live fictionally. The earth planet need peace. Humanity need absolute social stability. Human beings will like to be functional all of their life, but here are trillionaires that are unable to affect earth universal existence positively. Ongoing education globally has missing subjects and studies and require update/upgrade. Missing subjects studies in education holds total worldwide peace, absolute social stability and human functionality eternal on earth. Can't trillionaires help update/upgrade education that is primary to human development and existence from missing subjects studies? But we celebrate them?
