America’s wealthiest people are also some of the world’s biggest polluters – not only because of their massive homes and private jets, but because of the fossil fuels generated by the companies they invest their money in.

    If you have over a billion dollars, you could spend every waking moment shovelling money into a fire and you would still have over a billion dollars when you die

        My point is how much money a billion is. You literally couldn’t get rid of it fast enough to keep it from piling up (assuming it is accruing risk free interest).

      Yep. They earn interest on their money often faster than they can spend it. It makes less than no sense.
