No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If you found out your cousin was a billionaire (non-famous) and the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, how would you react? Would you be mad he didn’t tell you?
12·5 hours agothere are only a few thousand billionaires in the world, even if not “famous”
Do you know what Knight Transportation is? Probably not, but it’s a trucking company worth $8 billion, and it is on the Fortune 500. Do you know who the CEO is? No, you don’t—and his net worth is not publicly disclosed. So even if they are online, unless you are really into corporations, CEO stocks, etc., I doubt you’d know.
When I worked at a country club, I saw many high-net-worth individuals of all races—Black, Hispanic, Asian—and I can tell you that you wouldn’t be able to pick them out in a lineup.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•If Tyler Perry is a billionaire with his own successful movie studio then why are his films so bad?

mean, it’s false to say Tyler Perry is not a good businessman. He may make shit movies, but he knows the people who like his movies don’t care and will support the slop.


You’d be surprised—I’ve seen people on Twitter and Reddit excuse criminals doing horrible things because they are poor.
