>Bezos has all of his wealth in cash that he could just give to poor people without crashing his own company's stock

God I fucking hate retards who bitch about Bezos, the man is a filthy rich psychopath but most of his wealth is tied to assets that would dump hard if he tried to liquidate it all into cash and probably crash the economy if he tried to do it, ruining more lives in the process than he'd help.

Normies HATE Bezos but they worship people like Jobs and Musk. Normie also shop almost exclusively at Amazon, are oblivious to the federal reserve, continually buy into the stock market ponzi, think bitcoin is a scam, worship facebook / social media, are happy to give up their rights and privacy, etc.

737,544 days since Jesus was born
180k/day given you 67.5mm/yr, divided by months in a year that's 5.475mm/mo.
5.475mm/mo and investing in diversified stocks you should be close to average of 10%/yr.
2020 years of 5.475mm/mo at 10% per year is... Idk because it cuts me off at 1,000 years giving $11,766,863,614,508,906,171,533,254,756,202,962,846,100,106,627,776,512.00, which is waaaaay less than how much Bezos has because that's not even half the time sinc Jesus was born.

The entire point of the comparison was to show you only get ultrarich through inflation, interest and speculation, it's literally impossible through "honest work".

Fine. Long term taxes that aren't paid until cashing out thousands of years later. $15/week up until they get off the silver standard. Switch it to 20k/yr at that point.

Oh no no no. Think you can dodge income taxes while making 500k a year? Or if we want to be historical, and let's say we're in the middle east like Jesus and Bezos' ancestors, then you'd be paying 10% (or 20%, I forgot) of your wealth every year to charity or religious authorities.

So let's say you own a wonderfully productive mine that produces 1 ton of pure gold a year for a centuries.
Like Bezos you hold that as your main asset instead of diversifying, plus you don't want to crash the gold market like that dumbass African king.
How long would your mine have to operate before all the gold you're sitting on is worth more than Bezos in 2020?

Okay? It's amazing how much people cries at someone else's wealth. Watch a documentary about Bezos and understand that he worked himself bald to make Amazon into what it is today, the people complaining about his wealth are just jealous losers that have never fought as hard as he did to acquire their dream. Strong willed and smart people are priortized by the capitalist system, as it should be. Wasting time and energy on degenerates that doesn't even want to work or actually spend time fighting hard to acquire their goal is insane and will only push society backwards.
