    Peterffy is #80 with $20B. I know I contributed mightily to that fortune.

    Should be renamed "top Kleptomaniacs". 3/4 of them enriched themselves at the huge expense of all others through combinations of nepotism, theft, murder, abusing people during epidemics, tax loopholes... Low quality products hyped through extraordinary marketing machines, hooking people on opioids, bribing lawmakers through sneaky lobbyists... you name it...

    Perfect example of a poverty mindset.

    Living an ethical and morally upstanding lifestyle and still being successful produces some sort of cynicism towards those who constantly abuse others and the rules for their own self-serving life style and life choices. Fighting an uphill battle being honest while most others in the room try to stab you in the back is not fun was it not for the ultimate satisfaction of having achieved a respectable amount of success by adhering to ethical and moral standards and hardly ever crossing the line.

    If you had an inch of honesty in your blood you would not have said this because you would understand that doing well and doing right is extremely hard and tiring. It's usually the unsuccessful ones who admire money at any cost without regard to a moral backbone.

    I purposely stated 1/4 on the list to have earned their wealth through honest means.

    Perfect example of a poor man without regard to doing the right thing who would do anything for that extra dollar in the pocket and jealously eyeballs those who did exactly that and extracted wealth.

    And those 1/4 have probably already passed. In todays atmosphere of putting short term profits above anything else, even long term profits; you are left with very little wiggle room. peace.
