In 10 years, the world may have its first trillionaire. And the wealth of the richest people on the planet will continue to grow (4 photos)

The gap between the oligarchs and the poor will widen; this will not be dealt with in the next 200 years.





In 2034, the world's first trillionaire will appear. Well, this is when you buy islands, castles and planes, but the money still doesn’t run out.

Well what are you going to do...

The emergence of an insanely rich man was predicted by the merger of international charitable and humanitarian organizations Oxfam. The office found out: since 2020, the five richest people on the planet have doubled their wealth. It was $405 billion, now it’s $869, this is about the impact of the pandemic and other factors on the global economy and the wealth of individual characters. It turns out that these guys were getting rich at a rate of 14 million dollars an hour.

At the same time, 5 billion people began to live poorer: incomes fell, they began to consume cheaper products, and buy fewer cars and housing.

Oxfam experts say that if everything goes this way, we will soon see the happy face of the world's first trillionaire. And the gap between the poor and the rich will only grow; this trend will continue for the next 229 years.

And for billionaires everything will be OK. They own 7 of the 10 largest corporations (Microsoft, Amazon, etc.), the assets of their companies are $10.2 trillion. For comparison: this is if you take the GDP of the entire African continent and Latin America, and there will still be some left.

The Oxfam study confirms a time-tested formula: the ultra-rich 1% control almost half of the world's assets. Corporations are earning more and more and paying huge dividends to their leading shareholders. Ordinary workers' salaries are not increased or reduced. Therefore, the rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer.
