America's Richest Hit Record $8 Trillion | Los Angeles News

Forbes’ latest billionaire list reveals a staggering $8 trillion in collective net worth—up from last year’s $6.6 trillion—and now requires $4.4 billion just to make the cut. Elon Musk reigns supreme with $908 billion, while Warren Buffett holds tenth place with $144 billion. Sixty-two women remain on the list, led by Alice Walton with $118 billion. New regional titans include Larry Page in California, Arthur Blank in Georgia, and the York family in Ohio. Even Donald Trump returns, though his wealth dipped slightly. Amid rising inequality, this snapshot underscores how the ultra-rich keep climbing while most struggle to make ends meet.
