Mackenzie Scott is literally the only good one on here. It seems her only goal in life is to give away Mr. Clean on HGH money away. Love watching it.

Interesting that the pay gap seems to apply to billionaires as well.

On top of that, a lot of the women are listed as "& family" which to me implies they aren't the sole owners of that wealth.

Julia Koch inherited her wealth from her husband David who died in 2019. I think most of them are in a similar situation.

I think all women on this list got their wealth through death or divorce.

Don't know about most of the other bastards, but Elon Musk at least doesn't have a family to list

Elon did inherit a bunch of money from his family in South Africa. That’s where he got his initial funding for his startups.

Oh, I thought it was saying their immediate family, as in wealth shared through marriage. I expect everyone one those lists came from some kind of generational fortune

At some level it stops being a pay gap, and starts being a sociopathy gap.

I'm hungry. When do we eat?

[-] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

a lot of women don't have generational wealth the same way men have had. Either way, I hunger.
