1. Rich lists Taylor Swift among 141 new billionaires in ‘amazing year for rich people’ Combined assets of $14.2tn are more than the GDP of every country except China and the US Rupert Neate Wealth correspondent Tue 2 Apr 2024 12.46 EDTLast modified on Tue 2 Apr 2024 16.08 EDT There are more billionaires than ever before. The world has 2,781 people with fortunes exceeding $1bn (£800m), an increase of 141 on 2023, according to Forbes’ annual ranking of the world’s richest people – with Taylor Swift among those making the list. The billionaires are also collectively worth more than ever, with combined assets estimated at $14.2tn – a $2tn increase on 2023 and more than the GDP of every country except the US and China. Their collective wealth has risen by 120% in the past decade, at the same time as billions of people across the world have seen their living standards decrease in the face of inflation and the cost of living crisis.

Comfortably #Black. Escaped the South, currently enduring the #PNW. Just out here chillin trying to be a little less dumb every day#BlackMastodon#BlackFridayThat thing you hate and you wanna change, you should do it now. The longer you wait, the harder it will be, and everything will get worse. It's real hard to change it, almost seems impossible, but shit won't get better if you just sit there dealing with it
