I was pretty oblivious in junior high and high school in the ‘80s but knew some kids came from VERY RICH families and it wasn’t shocking but still surprising when I found out some were in the billions category. Even then it was just usually one or two billion.

Anyway, it’s so weird to fast forward to a time when you need almost $5 billion just to get on the Forbes 400 list.

A record 590 American billionaires are
simply too poor to clear The Forbes 400's
record minimum of $4.4 billion. Thirty-four
of them qualified last year but have failed to
keep up with their fellow plutocrats. Here are
three who dropped off and another two who,
like the rest of us, don't yet have that kind of
money. — Forbes Drop-Offs MISSED THE CUT A record 590 American billionaires are simply too poor to clear The Forbes 400's record minimum of $4.4 billion.
