Another example of how quickly wealth can disappear. John McAfee, yes the entrepreneur who founded the McAfee Antivirus software company is now worth only 4Mio, after reaching a peak of 100Mio. Read the original story here. While the financial crisis has hit many rich people and reduced their wealth, and there has probably been some redistribution of wealth, I doubt that the rich have stopped getting richer in the long run. As soon as the economy returns to growth those who still have wealth will be able increase their wealth again.
