    Well no shit… If you’re 30 years old and you EARNED, legit EARNED a billion dollars, you would have to have made $1,056.99 EVERY SECOND of your entire life from birth to 30.

      I don’t think your math is correct. There are 946,728,000 seconds in 30 years. That would mean they made just over a dollar per second, which is still pretty insane.

      That, and a billion dollars is not earned unless you count your money managers earning their own pay by investing your money well.
