Duh. It’s the stock market. Up, down, up, down. They’re not cashing out- it will bounce back.

Funny how two men who will prob lose the most wealth are also the ones getting space done.

Bitcoin prices are dropping, cos China is dumping all due to the virus.

LorenFogel Poor, poor Bezos. Said no one, ever.

fight_goddess I feel for the working Americans and their 401s but the billionaires can suck eggs.

They are probably some of the few people who it doesnt matter to. So many people nearing retirement are impacted so much more

And made :)

So what? Other than driving the stupid into a frenzy, who cares?

We love to see it

akdazed I feel really bad for the super rich right now. Wait...

There goes the rich paying for everything for everybody.

No more wealth tax for them to help close the growing wealth gap.

The reporter looks positively gleeful. Smh America is stronger than ever, we will be fine.

Mainstream media and Social media are over-reacting, as usual. Market's are not obliged to be Uni-Directional. Hot money has to exit and re-enter. Moneybags don't sit staring at screens watching monies vaporize unlike weak (Retail) hands. marketcrash marketcrash2020

Imagine how much more Bezos would have lost if he hadn’t been divorced?

Government should have Sooken up to All! We would be in better shape! Cruise ships etc. All HIT The fan!! 🤔

Imagine losing billions and not even caring. Whereas I’m losing thousands cause RobinhoodApp isn’t working and I’m stressing out about it.

Everyone see how dangerous the anti-Trump fake news media is now?
