Hardly. He’s a pauper compared to John D. Rockefeller who died in 1937. At the time of his death his assets equaled 1.5% of America’s total economic output.

With a $20T GDP that would be a $300B net worth in today’s dollars or around 200% what Bezos is worth.

Don’t worry. This second gilded age that we are living in is on track to ensure we have a trillionaire in short order.
