[removed fun fact due to it being false and still being published in modern books .. sigh]

Yes Bill Gates could buy 65% of the Turkish stock market, but if he wanted power, there are surely cheaper and easier ways to do it.
And regarding stability, you could make the case that these funds could increase stability. If you're in the 0.001% then surely you have the money to have a long term out look, which means they aren't going to worry about that short term blip.

Using private browsing mode tends to work.
I'm not quite sure how sites do it, but, lots of sites manage to enforce the article limit across even incognito and even across browsers... i pasted an archive.is link ( http://archive.is/o3LVk ) which is quite reliable for me and 99% of the time someone else already archived it.
Word got out

0.001% of the world is about 75k people [1], there are about 2200 dollar billionaires [2], so only(!) ~3% of these people are billionaires.

Love me some antisemitic propaganda on one of the most-read tech pages. Mods, delete this.
