- cycrutchfield 6y agoWhy are you comparing somebody’s net worth to a GDP, which is a rate? That makes zero sense.
- Cyph0n 6y agoNo, it does make sense: Brin could pay to run the 74th largest economy for a year.
- cycrutchfield 6y agoThat's not what GDP means, and also a person's net worth is not necessarily liquid.
