The worlds first Trillionaire.

Will there ever be a human who has a Trillion dollars of wealth, could it ever happen?

Or, is there an amount of money that' the unofficial 'ceiling' for one person to have?

Which, of course, is to his credit.

Why the hell would anyone need a trillion dollars?
Unless, of course, they are trying to take over
some corner of the world, like Dr. Evil....muhuaahhaaa

Why is that anyone else's business as long as it is obtained legally?

If the Indians, who sold Manhattan for $24 (in beads and trinkets), had sold their items and invested that money at 7% interest...today (389 years later) they would have 6.4 trillion dollars.
