None of those billionaires are sitting on some giant amount of assets like the dragon. They just own shares in a company which is worth a lot of money because of its future earnings value.
Unlike smaug, who hoards wealth & stops that wealth from being put to any productive use, all those billionaires built that wealth themselves by making companies people wanted to buy shares of.
Libtards don't understand capitalism or productivity or actually taking risk. Instead they think visionaries & capitalists serve no purpose, and all the value in the world is created by dumbfuck wagies punching their timecards.
It's exactly the difference between throwing all your money under your mattress or in a safe vs. a earning interest as deposit in a fractional reserve bank, or illiquid investments like stocks or bonds.
Expecting lefties to know what happens when you have money is a fool's errand. Most of them have never had assets and live benefit check to benefit check.
