#4I find this visualization of wealth where every dollar is a pixel a lot more compelling: https://mkorostoff.github.io/1-pixel-wealth/?v=3

#5An excellent visualizer. I particularly appreciate the use of text metaphors and analogies in lieu of traditional graphics, as it provides a more relatable metric to go by than just starkly different bar sizes on a chart.
My only critique would be to put into perspective social problems (e.g., homelessness, medical debt, etc) to demonstrate what portion of these could be solved through the wealth of a single billionaire. This is going to be even more critical as we approach the bleak reality of having our first trillionaire, barring global catastrophe wiping out asset values.

#9LA fires destroyed 17000 houses. Roughly average value: $3 million each.
That is $51 billion by my calculation.
Musk is worth $400 billion.

#10Musk is rich, because government takes money from poor people, and gives it to Musk! I am not allowed to buy normal cheap car. I have to choose between expensive Tesla or bike! Government will even give $20k to Musk for every Tesla!
