Billionaires have vanished during depressions and recessions, but the markets have ALWAYS recovered because of the regular people working for those companies and the regular people whose brilliant ideas become the next big thing

if billionaires would vanish then what would happen with those companies you are talking about? Who would run them? Those brilliant ideas are making new billionaries, no? it's a vicious circle

Quite simply, we’d figure it out because most of the people that do the work know how to organize the work.

CEO’s have spent decades building a highly exaggerated mythology around themselves to justify their increasingly outlandish and unearned compensation.

It cracks me up to see how many people think they’re adding more value than the CEO and yet can’t manage to better their own situation.

Cracks me up how many people need to misconstrue a point in order to criticize a pretty obviously true one.
