1
I am a journalist, trained as a journalist, but I spent most of my last 35 years as an anthropologist.
2
I've kind of been embedded with a very unique subspecies.
3
You might know them by their Latin name, Billionaires Maximus.
4
And when I got to Forbes out of college in 1991, there were all of 274 billionaires in the world.
5
It was a very aspirational little club.
6
You know, Bruno Mars in his song "Billionaire" sings of dreaming of being on the cover of Forbes magazine, standing next to Oprah and the Queen.
7
Well, you know, fast forward, if we did that cover now, it would be very crowded.
8
Forbes tracks 3,428 people we believe have a net worth right now of a billion dollars or more.
9
And they all have one thing in common.
10
Who wants to know the secret of every billionaire right now in the world, which is nobody likes them.
11
Forbes and HarrisX conducted a survey a couple of weeks ago [of] 1,009 Americans.
12
The results are not good.
13
Trial lawyers are kicking billionaires' ass.
14
(Laughter) They are tied with members of Congress.
15
They are barely beating TikTok influencers.
16
(Laughter) But there's a disconnect going on right now because the world needs billionaires.
17
The world desperately needs billionaires.
18
If you look at countries that have billionaires, they tend to have all the things that we all love: progress, jobs, growth.
19
Let's go to China.
20
At the beginning of this century, there were no Chinese billionaires on the Forbes list, and almost 500 million people lived in extreme poverty.
21
Fast forward 20 years, it's almost the opposite.
22
Almost 500 Chinese billionaires and no one living in extreme poverty.
23
That is not a coincidence.
24
If you go to Nigeria, one of the largest countries in the world by population, only four billionaires, about 100 million people live in extreme poverty.
25
There are no billionaires in Cuba.
26
There are no billionaires in Iran.
27
There are no billionaires in Belarus.
28
History shows that incentive creates personal wealth and societal wealth.
29
When you cap earnings, that correlates with repression and stagnation.
30
So why all the hate?
31
Why all the hate?
32
Wealth disparity is some of it.
33
In a few weeks, if SpaceX goes public as scheduled, Forbes believes that at that moment, Elon Musk will become the world's first trillionaire.
34
That's a million million.
35
But here's the deal.
36
Elon is no richer, not much richer at least when you measure by GDP, [than] John D. Rockefeller when he became the world's first billionaire a hundred years ago.
37
John D. Rockefeller, he was an OG monopolist.
38
But by the end of his life, doing lots of good works, he was highly respected.
39
Andrew Carnegie even more so.
40
People don't resent billionaires.
41
People want to become billionaires.
42
People resent billionaires when they forget that the purpose of business is to create happiness, not who dies with the most toys.
43
(Applause) So here's the scorecard.
44
Right now, here are the five richest people in the world, all Americans, all with a net worth north of 200 billion dollars.
45
Forbes tracks pretty much every billionaire in terms of how much they give to charity -- how much winds up, [and the] end result into charity.
46
Right now, these five collectively, [their] competitive net worth, less than one percent of their net worth, has been donated to charity: 0.9 percent.
47
Compare that with the average American -- teacher, fireman -- [who] gives two percent of his or her income to charity.
48
That gap, as somebody who loves entrepreneurial capitalism and defends entrepreneurial capitalism, bothers me.
49
That gap is why there are pitchforks.
50
But that gap is something we can address ...
51
by leaning into the final decision maker that a lot of billionaires have when they decide if they're going to be philanthropic or not, which is their egos.
52
It turns out that a lot of people care about where they are on various Forbes lists.
53
In fact, in 1982, the very first Forbes 400, we had one tycoon who helped us create an immutable law of wealth tracking: the Trump rule.
54
Take what the Donald tells you, divide by three and refine from there.
55
Saudi Arabia's Prince Al Waleed created an entire public company, basically to get higher on the Forbes list.
56
Every year before the Forbes issue came out, the billionaires issue, he would buy up his own stock, pump up his own stock, and after it came out, he would sell it.
57
Look, it’s like a 10-digit cardiogram there.
58
(Laughter) Kylie Jenner's team gave us what we believe are bogus numbers about her company to get onto the Forbes billionaires list, and she's not even the thirstiest member of the Kardashian family.
59
(Laughter) During COVID, Kanye West called me maybe every other day.
60
We talked about an hour at a time, mostly about how he thinks he was richer than we said he was.
61
When we respectfully disagreed, he respectfully responded by tweeting my cell phone to 30 million followers on Twitter.
62
(Laughter) That was a tough day.
63
(Laughter) But Kanye inspired an idea.
64
Why can't we lean into this strange leverage we have over some people?
65
Why can't we create a list that rewards people for donating to charity versus penaliz[ing] them by taking them further down on the Forbes list?
66
(Applause) So we've created something called True Net Worth, and we're going to debut it right here.
67
(Cheers and applause) True Net Worth is your regular net worth, combined with the money you've donated that we appreciate like you still own it.
68
(Applause) Here is a refresher.
69
Here are the top five in the world.
70
Here are the top five by true net worth.
71
(Applause) Look at my friend Warren Buffett.
72
He's already given more away, in today's dollars, than he still has.
73
He's pledged 99 percent of what's left to charity, and he stipulated that all that money has to be spent down within 10 years of his death, as opposed to just sitting in a foundation, gathering interest for years.
74
(Applause) That's true net worth.
75
Now let's look at the biggest movers on this list.
76
(Applause and cheers) MacKenzie Scott is giving away money faster, smarter, no-strings-attached than pretty much anyone in history.
77
She's the 84th richest person in the world by net worth.
78
She's 26th by true net worth.
79
(Cheers and applause) People don't value what you can't measure.
80
True net worth offers role models for billionaires, for millionaires, for thousandaires.
81
Give while you live.
82
Give faster and bigger maybe than you're comfortable with, give your money or your time.
83
But what all of it does is support the system that makes all of us prosperous.
84
Thank you. (Cheers and applause)

맥락 및 배경

란달 레인은 저널리스트이자 인류학자로, 지난 35년간 '억만장자(억만장자 맥시무스)'라는 독특한 집단에 깊이 관여해왔습니다. 1991년 포브스에 입사했을 때, 전 세계에는 단 274명의 억만장자가 존재했습니다. 현재 포브스는 3,428명의 억만장자를 추적하고 있으며, 그들은 모두 공통적으로 '사람들은 그들을 좋아하지 않는다'는 점을 가지고 있었습니다. 이는 세계적으로 억만장자에 대한 부정적인 인식을 의미합니다. 그러나 억만장자가 없는 나라에 비해, 억만장자가 있는 나라는 발전과 일자리 창출, 성장을 보여줍니다. 이러한 모순된 상황은 오늘날 사람들에게 여러 가지 질문을 던집니다.

일상 대화를 위한 5가지 핵심 구문

  • “The world desperately needs billionaires.” - 세상은 억만장자가 절실히 필요합니다.
  • “People want to become billionaires.” - 사람들은 억만장자가 되고 싶어합니다.
  • “The purpose of business is to create happiness.” - 사업의 목적은 행복을 창출하는 것입니다.
  • “Wealth disparity is some of it.” - 부의 불균형이 그 원인 중 일부입니다.
  • “That gap bothers me.” - 그 격차는 나를 불편하게 합니다.

이 구문들은 일상 회화에서 자주 사용할 수 있는 유용한 표현들로, 특히 경제나 사회적 이슈에 대한 대화에서 특히 적합합니다. 이러한 표현들은 영어 회화 연습에 도움이 되며, shadowspeak으로 연습하기에 아주 좋습니다.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
