Combined wealth of all billionaires standing together at Trump's inauguration is leaving people stunned

An insane amount of personal wealth shared the room at President Donald Trump’s inauguration.

The Republican was sworn in yesterday (January 20) for his second time in office, and one thing that was apparent was that the world’s richest people wanted to be in attendance.

In fact, four of the five wealthiest billionaires were present. Of course, there was Elon Musk who tops Forbes’ rich list with $433.9 billion, followed by Jeff Bezos $239.4 billion, Mark Zuckerberg in third at $211.8 billion, while Bernard Arnault and his family were also present, flying over from France with their $182.7 billion.

Only Oracle owner Larry Ellison, whose net worth is valued at $204.6 billion, snubbed the event. The combined wealth of the top four is $1,067,800,000,000 – that’s over a trillion for those who aren’t great with numbers.

But they weren’t the only billionaires in the room, of course, President Trump is one himself with Forbes calculating he has a net worth of $6.7 billion thanks to his real estate – notably the huge Trump Tower in New York.

Then there was the Australian media mogul Rupert Murdoch whose wealth accounts $22.2 billion in the US as he owns Fox , the New York Post and The Wall Street Journal.

If you’re a fan of the hit TV series Succession then you’ll be familiar with the 93-year-old, with it being widely known that the show is based on his family.

In fact, Murdoch himself is actually rumored to be in a secret legal battle with his four eldest children over who will run his media empire in the future.

Anyway, people over on Twitter, owned by Musk, were stunned at the wealth in the room for Trump’s inauguration.

One tweeted: “Combined $912 BILLION of net worth seated next to each other at President Trump’s Inauguration. Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, and Sundar Pichai.”

Another person wrote: “The irony that Americans didn’t want to be controlled by multi-millionaire Democratic celebrities but are now controlled by billionaire Republican tech entrepreneurs.”

While another commented: “All this billionaires flocking to Trump’s side (Bezos, Zuckerberg, Pichai…) should be a massive red flag.

“Like they give a s*** for your rising prices of groceries and housing. They only want to line their pockets with your money.”

Meanwhile Bernie Sanders tweeted: “When I started talking about Oligarchy, many people didn’t understand what I meant. Well, that’s changed.

“When the 3 wealthiest men in America sit behind Trump at his inauguration, everyone understands that the billionaire class now controls our government.

“We must fight back.”

Shockingly, there was enough money in that room to completely eradicate world hunger and homelessness.
