        Respect to those that started with nothing, unlike DT! Plus most of them are giving their fortune to charity, also unlike DT.

        It should also be noted, that what bothers DT is that those on this list are so much wealthier than he will ever be.

        misleading. Billionaire Bill Gates created 12,000 millionaires. Half the world is poor because of dictators, socialism & communism.
