Well, well, well, such keen is the competition amongst America's wealthiests that even billion dollars
is not enough to ensure a place in the rich list. Forbe's 25th ranking of richest Americans is out and it is realized that minimum benchmark to get a spot in the super rich bracket is 1.3 billion dollars. Who says America's economy is not blithering, the minimum benchmark is after all up by good 300 million dollars than last year. So, despite having million dollars under their belt as many as 82 (hopeful??) US billionaires did not able to rub shoulders with top 400s.
Out of top 20 list -- almost all of them strongly practicing outsourcing in developing countries, be it South East Asia, China or Eastern Europe. Sheldon Adelson is odd one out since he can not outsource his casinos and hotels but expansion plan certainly includes India. Same with oil and gas emperor Charles Koch. Don't know much about sweet candy samrats Forest Mars Jr, John Mars and Jacqueline Mars. Otherwise for all its an inclined outsourcing policy, that's for sure.
