Forbes 400

Post by yankees60 »

The latest Forbes list of the 400 richest Americans - Trump is #329 at $2.5 billion.

I did not see any mention of anyone gaining their wealth through following the Permanent Portfolio!

A politician losing net worth while in office? Is this a first?

Harry was adamant that you make your money via work and entrepreneurship. You preserve it with the Permanent Portfolio. It is a damn good vehicle for preserving wealth. It is not a wealth generating scheme.

Not the first time it's happened and will not be the last. I'm generally so super serious that when I attempt humor no one gets it.
