Eight billionaires ''as rich as world's poorest half''.
The world's eight richest individuals have as much wealth as the 3.6bn people who make up the poorest half of the world. These billionaires could end world poverty.
In Swaziland, it would cost $85 million per year to reduce the poverty rate from 41% to 0%.
Swaziland's richest man, Nathan Kirsh, is worth $4,300 million. Kirsh companies are registered in tax havens.
Kirsh is the largest shareholder in, and is a director of, Magal Security Systems. Could a Few Billionaires Close the World's Poverty Gap?
Jews are disproportionately represented on the list of the world's wealthiest.
Warren iz giving away all his money you dimb nigger, so is gates basically
Jaxon Peterson
Funny... I only see one Jew. Sup Forums was wrong again!
Hudson Howard
>Warren iz giving away all his money you dimb nigger, so is gates basically
Austin Brown
>give Africans money >they end up buying guns with it or smoking it
Adrian Wright
>These kikes could end world poverty with their wealth no, they could end some nigger hunger for some ugly ass shoes but no matter the ammount of money given could end poverty
Isaiah Barnes
Philanthropy used to be quite a big thing, it's be nice to see it make a comeback.
Bentley Gutierrez
>Ellison >Zuckerberg >Bloomberg
Austin Baker
Does not name Rothschild or central banking shitty bait op.
Luke Cook
you can't take the poverty and crime out of their brains. pic related
Cooper Cooper
I can vouch for Bill and I like what Bezos is doing but I have no idea about the rest...
Kayden Powell
We don't need philanthropy now that it's govt mandated via tax and gibs.
Dylan Jenkins
No mention of the Bogdanoff guys...
Eli Stewart
yes and making 50K a year i'm as rich as 5% of Americans i assume
work harder
i plan to be part of the 1% in the next 15 years and every year i make another small step
Charles Wilson
Well I don't agree with greedy kikes amassing these fortunes, they can't end poverty by giving money to people. People are generally poor due to stupidity, hence lottery winners and washed up rappers who are now broke.
Carson Moore
Idk about Ellison and Ortega, but the rest of those cucks are leftists
Dot they believe in paying their "fair share"??
Really makes you think
Anthony Bailey
426 billion $ divided by 3.6 billion people equals 118 $ for each of them.
Concentration of wealth is not the problem.
How to solve the world's poverty problem? Should start by ending the intellectual property.
Elijah Hill
If Bill Gates would give away his money to all Americans (325 mil.) every American would get $230.
Christopher Wright
Together they have a wealth of $427 billion
divide that by the poorest 3.6 billion = only $118.61 for each person
that's like giving them 33 cents a day for a year until it runs out
commie faggots would literally destroy the world's most successful corporations and put millions of people out of good productive jobs so some worthless shitskins can have an extra 33 cents a day for a year for sitting on their asses and producing nothing
Andrew Reyes
Seen a couple of threads about this. Why is Rothschild not on the list?
Justin Ross
Could end poverty tomorrow by culling off the worlds niggers
David Miller
>Give the world cash in hand >They spend it on stupid shit and it goes straight back up the line to the jews
Jaxon Mitchell
Thanks, but the majority are still white non-Jewish males. Explain this.
Owen Sanchez
Gates may have voted for Hillary but he supports a number of Trumps policies.
Carson Flores
Alright fine. We take all 8 of those people and give every one of the 3.6 billion people who are poor 118 dollars leaving those 8 with nothing. That will solve the problem.
Luis Martin
I think there isn't one specific Rothschild who makes the list, it's the family's combined wealth that dwarfs everything else.
That or they're just good at hiding it idk.
Ethan Robinson
>tfw my inbreed national mate got this from kikebook
Ethan Thomas
>no rothchilds
Really made my neurons fire up
Michael Lopez
are you autistic? obviously every person wouldn't be getting some envelope with money in it, instead infrastructure/aid would be provided to poor communities. at least have a reasonable strawman prepared, faggot.
Aiden Cruz
If the world's GDP (or rather GWP) were distributed per capita, it'd have a similar standard of living to somewhere like Costa Rica or Thailand.
Commies want to lower us to that level.
Connor Wilson
a little bit of both probably
Mason Rivera
Because these Forbes rankings are all fake. They exclude people who got rich with dirty business.
Ryan Torres
>have a lot of gold >give a lot of gold to the populace >gold is now 100% worthless, nobody is rich
>have a lot of money >???
This is LITERALLY the fucking core of economics. This is what they teach little babies. Redistribute wealth = 0 wealth, not only do you end up poorer but all your job makers are now poor too.
Kayden Johnson
>liquidate all the assets and debts of the 8 richest [less than US$427 bn] - including patents >transfer all the cash to the poorest 3.6bn, equally >every loser gets US$118,61 ??? one month later?
>hateful get some good life getting jobs as CEOs, advisors, writing books, managing investment accounts, making commercials and later start leveraging on their own cash again
>on the other hand the 3.6 bn shitheads are asking for cash again
Problem solved
Levi Lopez
>post tfw you discover that income over $105,000USD is 90th percentile of individual incomes in US
Anthony Parker
Fuck the fuck off with this meme you commie faggot!
Colton Martin
even if we deal equally all the cash and assets AND property in the world, it would take couple of years to idiots lose all their wealth and smartasses get millions again...
Just look at post-URSS Russia. 25 years later they got insanely unequal. Millionaires own 60% of the wealth
Nathan Edwards
you dont understand the difference between wealth and income
Easton Edwards
YOU JUST FAILED AT COMMUNISM.
Lenin didn't shared the money of the richest. It just cancelled the money.
Seizing the mean of production != sharing the money of the rich.
Ayden Powell
cancer gtfo
Isaac Ortiz
>ending the intellectual property Yep, the chinese would love this shit, while engineers, scientists and innovators would suck dicks for a living.
Levi Edwards
All democrats, except the Mexicans, who don't matter.
HMMMMMM....
Dylan Gonzalez
just teach us on what infrastructure could help 3.6 bn people with 427 bn dollars, and who would manage the cash. govts would probably build soccer stadiums pocketing half the cash.
Noah Ramirez
Assuming that's even true, say you divide up their money among all the poorest people. Then what? Will those poorfags suddenly have a grasp on how to create wealth and infrastructure? Or will they continue being tards with a couple more bucks to their name?
"Humanitarian aid" is such a bad meme, when will we stop trying to force evolution?
Jonathan Carter
hmm, yet Rockerfellas and Rothschildes not on there
Samuel Thomas
>Not listing the Rothschilds
Josiah Cox
Why isn't Vladimir Putin on here? He's worth $60b at a conservative estimate.
Sebastian King
infrastructure isn't just roads you dumb monkey faggot
it's shit like schools
have you heard of carnegie melon?
go research how that was founded
and get aids from a tranny
Adam Robinson
>this with we make a huge lottery with all the assets, properties and cash in the world, the dumbest would still have to work for the smartest or get crushed even harder...
Nicholas Richardson
>carnegie melon is this a farm?
Liam Anderson
Jews are basically 0.01% on the world population yet there are couple in this shortlist.
Chase Thompson
>carnegie melon
I knew this was going to be the edgy response
xDDDD IS DAT EVEN A SCHOOL WUT A STUPID NAME IM A BRAZLIAN XD IM SO WITTY LOL
sad that the joke's on you and your retarded country
Logan Murphy
Hello hillary
Eli Williams
>only the poorest of the 8 richest are jews OY VEY THIS IS ANUDDA SHOAH
Jayden Diaz
Nope. Around 12 mil Jews on 7 nil world population that's almost .2%
Evan Williams
Why they never mention the Rothschild family that has a networth of over 500 trillions?
Mason Thompson
...
Jaxon Taylor
The common excuse is that these lists exclude dictators or nobility.
Grayson Jones
its conveniently left out soros and the rothchild gang
Hudson Morris
The only thing you need to know about jews is that you're not allowed to talk about jews.
Josiah Perry
>set of royal families and dictators who derive their forture from positions of power >a handful of african warlors with a few billions >a handful of middle eastern poetrol emirs with maybe dozens of billions >and 8 all Rotschilds with more than 2,000 billions What a joke
Nathan Baker
Gee its like a leftist dream team of billionaires. I wonder if they are part of that nasty 1% that leftist love to wring their hands about.
Dominic Murphy
thread number 435345 about this article and "inequality" fuck off leftypol
SAGE
Logan Ward
I'm no socialist and obviously "lol give their money to the poor" wouldn't help as much as one might thing... but we can do a lot better than a system that creates that kid of disparity.
We'll deal with this once we establish the ethno-state Lebensraum I guess
Hunter Ross
that investopedia claim of the family having 2 trillion dollars is completely unsubstantiated btw.
Landon Walker
>I knew this was going to be the edgy response pol, we have a wizard here
Zachary Williams
>literally destroy the world's most successful corporations and put millions of people out of good productive jobs
assuming we were taking their wealth we would also be taking the factories and land they own too. production wouldnt halt because some overpayed fags are jewed to irrelevance
Zachary Lewis
>WORK HARDER
Andrew Jones
>Concentration of wealth is not the problem.
imbecile
Aaron Morris
at least half are, but Cuckerburg and Bezos are two liberal powerhouses
Logan Diaz
Why are you suck a cuckold for your masters?
lel no, they have to go
Liam Davis
ALSI IMBECILE
Mason Hughes
Nice meme
Hudson Barnes
WHY IS THIS THREAD FILLED WITH IDIOTS
Josiah Wright
>""""""leftists""""""
Samuel Williams
I lack information on investopedia. Is it generally a bad source? Is there a better source that invalidates the claim or that the method used to acquire the claim is invalid?
Owen Sanders
...
Ryan Reyes
>the fucking core of economics.
no its merely the core of the status quo
the 8 are merely an example mr shitbaiter
Isaiah Kelly
Once you control for cost of living being lower in a lot of the country (so a small income of like 30k is fine since you're just living on the farm anyway) and nearly half being non-whites, it makes sense.
Connor Hill
Not really but okay.
Henry Ramirez
so you give no shit about billions of poor people but all of sudden a mere 8 poor people is some crime against humanity? note that i dont think giving everyone in the world 118 bucks will solve anything, but be consistent you fucking faglord
Connor Jones
>"world's poorest half'' We're literally talking about inherently useless and unproductive third world shitskins and niggers. What is even your argument?
Anthony Gray
So let's tax the rich!!!
(even though you'll never get that money from those billionaires through taxes since they'll never make it liquid)
Isaiah Edwards
Strawman much?
Landon Rivera
Leave amancio ortega alone
reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Camden King
All of their assets are tied up in stocks.
If they started selling, the economy would take a hit.
>see also, what happened when Soros wanted to "prop up the ruble".
Not defending them. More of a criticism, actually. Accumulation of wealth like this is just irresponsible. You need to draw the line at some point and just retire...
Evan Hernandez
>le ebin nigger meme
Parker Clark
lol wtf where is soros. he's fucking poor as shit.
Hudson Adams
>the provably low iq of shitskins is a meme But it isn't. Being productive in the modern world requires a significantly higher IQ than they have on average.
>Oxfam this morning launches an attack on eight billionaires whose wealth they label “grotesque“, claiming this “super-rich elite are able to prosper at the expense of the rest of us“. Guido has done some cursory digging and found that the eight billionaires lambasted by Oxfam have made at least $60 billion in charitable donations. By contrast Oxfam spends around £300 million a year on charitable causes. It would take more than 150 years for Oxfam to raise as much for charity as the eight billionaires they condemn today.
>Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft: More than $27 billion dollars in charitable donations, some 48% of his net worth, saving some 6 million lives fighting malaria and polio. >Amancio Ortega, founder of Inditex: More than $95 million in charitable donations. >Warren Buffett, CEO, Berkshire Hathaway: More than $21.5 billion in charitable donations. >Carlos Slim Helu, owner of Grupo Carso: More than $4 billion dollars in charitable donations. >Jeff Bezos, founder, Amazon: More than $25 million dollars in charitable donations, invests hundreds of millions in not-for-profit ventures. >Mark Zuckerberg, co-founder of Facebook: More than $1.6 billion in charitable donations. >Larry Ellison, co-founder, Oracle: More than $564 million dollars in charitable donations. >Michael Bloomberg, founder, Bloomberg LP: More than $4.22 billion dollars in charitable donations.
How much did YOU donate to charity last year OP? Faggot left-wing retard.
Brody Phillips

Daniel Cook
The Rothschilds and other prominent banker families have under centuries mastered the art of hiding their wealth and influence from the masses.
Most of the wealth is tied to various firms, trusts, holding companies which don't publish any figures to the plebs
Austin Wood
>Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft: More than $27 billion dollars in charitable donations, some 48% of his net worth, saving some 6 million lives fighting malaria and polio.
throwing away money at niggers who will never amount to anything instead of doing anything truly useful. wow so inspiring.
gates is fucking hack

Doubling the 'wealth' of the poorest 50% will not end world poverty
Read Celebrity Humanitarianism by Illan Kapoor. It exposes modern celebrity humanitarianism for what is - a brand building technique.
