Are you 13% better off than you were last year? (26 photos)

from David Ruccio

Is your net worth 13 percent higher this year than in 2011?

Mine is certainly not. I doubt yours is, either. But, according to the latest information on the Forbes list of the richest 400 Americans [ht: ja], their net worth did grow by that amount—to $1.7 trillion. It’s an amount that “far outpaced that of the economy overall, helping widen the chasm between rich and poor.”  Here below, with photos and details, are the richest 26.

Yep, the top one percent of the top one percent are doing just fine, thank you. . .

    Yup. Indeed. Money make money. Power make power. In addition, money and power ‘buy away’ trouble.
