Vous savez quoi ? Je pense que le SMIC devrait être à 2000€ euros par mois, et que l'âge de départ à la retraite devrait être à 55 ans.
Aussi je pense qu'il faudrait taxer sévèrement tous ceux dont la fortune dépasse 5 millions d'euros et utiliser toute cette thune pour financer les retraites, les hôpitaux, les écoles publiques, etc., et régler les crises de logement, comme ça on éradique les 43 milliardaires en rendant la vie plus juste pour les 67 autres millions de gens vivant en France, y compris celleux qui meurent dans les rues sous -4°C en hiver ou +40°C en été. En fait, en utilisant la fortune de Bernard Arnault uniquement, on pourrait rémunérer tout le reste de la France non pas à 2000€ euros, mais à 2400€ environ. Et c'est seulement la fortune d'un mec.
Imaginez si la fortune des 42 autres était dans les caisses de l'État.

Astro Observation: Commonalities in Billionaires' Charts
Taking a look at the charts of the top 15 richest people in the world as of 2022 (list taken from Forbes)
Subjects:
Elon Musk
Jeff Bezos
Bernard Arnault
Bill Gates
Warren Buffett
Larry Page
Sergey Brin
Larry Ellison
Steve Ballmer
Mukesh Ambani
Gautam Adani
Michael Bloomberg
Carlos Slim Helu
Francoise Bettencourt Meyers
Mark Zuckerberg
What happens when we break down all 15 people's personal planets?
Taurus and Aquarius came out the most frequently among personal planets (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars) with 10 and 9, respectively.
Taurus is not a surprise. It is ruled by Venus, which has two sides: the lighter, gracious, lovely side and the warring, violent, and self-centered side. Taurus tends to have a taste for finer things, status, and comfort. It is an earth sign, meaning there is a level of stability and resoluteness when they decide they want to pursue something. Once they reach a certain status or goal, they do not let go easily and will keep their place for as long as they can.
Aquarius, ruled by Uranus, is associated with the group and the public. There is a level of detachment that separates the Aquarian from others and helps them get a wider perspective on people's needs and wants. At the same time, it is a sign that wants to be different, and this is what makes them or their company/products stand out. Aquarius is associated with technology and doing things for the world and/or humanity. High possibility of reaching many people.
Aries, Cancer, and Pisces all tied for third with 7 each.
Aries are action-oriented and ambitious people who take steps to realize their goals. Because they are impulsive and confident, they are not afraid to take risks.
Cancers want to be able to take care of themselves and their loved ones and can make very shrewd, practical money moves that keep growing.
Pisces are original and intuitive; they can process a lot of abstract information they use to make decisions; can also be very in tune with the general public, which helps to know what is currently happening and what will happen in the future.
The sign that appeared the least among personal planets was Sagittarius with 3. Gemini and Scorpio both tied for second to last with 4 each.
By modality? Fixed signs were the most common (29). Then, Cardinal (26). And lastly, Mutable (20).
By element? Earth came in first (22). Then, Air (19), Water (18), and Fire (16).
Most common aspect?
Neptune - Pluto (10/15)
This is a generational aspect that lasts from the 1940s to the 2030s. Warren Buffett, Carlos Slim Helu, Michael Bloomberg, Larry Ellison, and Larry Page are the only ones without this aspect. Since this aspect includes such a wide range of people, it does not hugely affect our study. I also do not have their accurate birth times, so I do not know which houses Neptune and Pluto land.
Sun - Moon (9/15)
This aspect shows that the ego is connected to emotions. Ego means our self-esteem and self-importance. So, with a Sun-Moon aspect, our desire to see ourselves as important is directly connected to our emotions. Sun-Moon people can feel that they want to show people who they are and what they can be. There can be a lot of friction in life when it comes to wanting to be "someone," and this often serves as a motivator for success (not just financial success). This can also show someone sure of who they are; they go through life with a good level of confidence. On the other hand, a negative but productive manifestation could be someone who is trying to match their level of self-esteem with their goals in life. Even if they reach goals, they may want to feed their ego more and push harder for an even higher goal.
Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates (Mars-ruled Sun and Moon), Larry Ellison (same sign Sun-Moon in Leo), Steve Ballmer, Gautam Adani, and Michael Bloomberg (same sign Sun-Moon in Aquarius) do not have this aspect.
Sun - Mars (8/15)
Sun-Mars people are assertive and action-oriented. Negatively, they can be too aggressive and selfish. These people are competitive and can be good at directing others. Mars is a planet of action and passion; anyone, not just billionaires, who has achieved any kind of success in life, needs the ability to put things into action and an ongoing passion for working toward their goals. This is a go-getter, taking the opportunity kind of aspect.
Elon Musk (Mars conjunct NN), Bill Gates (Sun-Moon in Mars-ruled signs), Larry Ellison, Steve Ballmer (Sun in Aries), Mukesh Ambani (Sun in Aries), Gautam Adani, and Carlos Slim Helu (Mars in Aries) do not have this aspect.
Sun - Neptune (8/15)
So, we've gone through ego and action. And now, we must talk about dreams. Neptune means many things, one of them being dreams and things that don't seem possible. Many of these billionaires, if not all, dreamt big. They wanted to become successful (at least financially) and become part of the top echelon or wanted to change people's lives with technology and innovation. Even now, as billionaires, they keep dreaming bigger and bigger and work towards realizing their goals. People who dream too small don't usually get big rewards. Sun-Neptune people tend to have good imaginations and can want glamourous things in life. Or, they can be philanthropists and make contributions to society.
Elon Musk, Bernard Arnault (Sun, Venus, Mars in Pisces), Larry Ellison, Steve Ballmer, Michael Bloomberg, Carlos Slim Helu, and Mark Zuckerberg do not have this aspect.
Sun - Chiron (8/15)
Sun-Chiron people tend to understand the realities of life, both the good and the bad. They could be sensitive or have perceived insecurities; they may also feel they are/will be different and accept this responsibility. Think of Chiron the centaur. Chiron was different from the beginning and was raised as a civilized centaur. He developed many skills in his lifetime and was a forever student and mentor. He lived accepting that life has both beautiful and painful moments. Sun-Chiron aspect is a bit of a lonely aspect; this person could be well-liked, but it does not detract from his/her loneliness. These are types who want to find a solution to every problem, personal or societal. They may also feel different from others or excluded by others (socially isolated).
Jeff Bezos, Warren Buffett, Larry Page, Larry Ellison, Mukesh Ambani, Michael Bloomberg, and Carlos Slim Helu do not have this aspect.
Uranus - Chiron (8/15)
When we combine Uranus with Chiron, we get someone who wants to bring a new era to society. These people believe in being different and thinking of different ways to solve problems. They definitely do not follow the beaten path; they are pioneers. Uranus is the planet associated with the group. Uranus-Chiron people are tuned into what the public needs and wants are. These people are advocates for progressive ideas, technology, and thinking outside the box, all in the name of social progress.
Bernard Arnault, Warren Buffett, Steve Ballmer, Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani, Michael Bloomberg, and Mark Zuckerberg do not have this aspect.
Jupiter - Pluto (8/15)
This is a classic sign of someone with immense wealth, fortune, and resources. Jupiter is an expansive planet associated with fortune, luck, and opportunity. Pluto is associated with power, control, and transformation. Whatever opportunities, risks, ventures, etc. these people take, it has a chance of becoming very successful. These people don't receive wealth and power from others; they want to generate this themselves. In a negative light, this could also mean being too risky, too controlling, and so powerful that they eat everyone around them. This can also show immense greed and having a hard time stopping. This is a very powerful aspect, but it can also bring highly transformative moments in life since with a lot of power and money comes a lot of responsibility, especially social responsibility.
Jeff Bezos, Bernard Arnault, Larry Ellison, Mukesh Ambani, Michael Bloomberg, Francoise Bettencourt Meyers, and Mark Zuckerberg do not have this aspect.
The most aspected planets in this order:
Chiron (62)
Venus (61)
Pluto (58)
Neptune (57)
Saturn (57)
Jupiter (56)
Sun (55)
Moon (55) *birth times not accurate
Mercury (49)
Mars (49)
Uranus (48)
North Node (33)
South Node (30)
Closing Thoughts
Whatever your opinions are on the mega-rich, you cannot say these people did not work for their money. It could be driven by greed, or maybe there are good intentions behind their actions. But they worked to build themselves an empire. Seeing Chiron, Pluto, and Saturn among the top 5 most aspected planets shows that building a "modern empire" takes time, hard work, dedication, and perseverance.
At the same time, you also need luck and a tendency to want to expand and grow (Neptune, Jupiter) as well fortune and attraction, shown with Venus (and Jupiter) as the second most aspected planet. Venus is seen as a benefic planet that attracts. It is associated with money and fortune (as well as beauty and love). It is not surprising that this is highly aspected in the charts of billionaires.
I find it interesting that Chiron is the most aspected planet. Chiron is highly skilled, educated, intelligent, and helpful. But he was also wounded and did not know how to heal himself.
I can interpret this in two ways: These billionaires are driven to use their skills to contribute and provide something for others. Or, they have a lot of good things that others want, but there is still something missing.
Edited Jul 22, 2022: Double-checked my data and found that my calculations for Venus were incorrect. This is now corrected. Venus is the second most aspected planet, not the 10th.

Je viens de vérifier la liste des milliardaires dans le monde, et Bernard Arnault, notre champion national, est passé premier 🥳
Il faut faire savoir à Macron qu'on a trouvé une solution pour les retraites
Oui j’ai découvert ça il y a peu aussi 🥲
Ça ne m’étonne pas tant, concentrer les richesses dans la poche de ses amis capitalistes c’est la priorité numéro 1 de notre président préféré.
Et puis bon, ils sont copains, et les copains c’est important. On peut quand même pas les taxer?!?

If we unalived the ten richest men and distributed their money to everyone in the world, we’d each get about $145 which I think would be a nice treat

While eccentric billionaires are plotting major over-shovel of Martian landscape and sharing with public grandiose future plans of sending excess of Earth population to overpopulate Mars, some pretty brutal landscaping has been recurving horizon line of our world, like school of piranhas reshaping it swiftly, quietly, with no doubt or mercy. Olympus de Couture, mountain that had been home to the Pantheon of Gods of Style and Fashion ever since Eve stole Adam's credit card and went on namebrand fig leaves' shopping spree to the Shamecovers Mall, over the last half a century has got literally beheaded - gorgeous snowy peak got mercilessly bulldozed flat above the cloud level.
Even before the very last Couturier (Parisian for Fashion God) passed away, a few Digital Illionaires from his suiBusiness Class Cloud, legendary levitating platform, tied to the ground with magic Phat Knots Vine, came over with their purchasing power sticking out from their pockets, and somehow eerie silent Peak of High Fashion became their property literally overnight. Since their anatomy wouldnt allow them successfully climb anything but career ladders, no steep slopes were to be left unfixed - hired landscape assassins with their assistants had severed mountain's head in a blink of an eye, and by now there's nothing left there on the very top above the clouds, only absolutely flat plateau with a half dozen private graveyards, fenced off, high voltage electric current humming in wrapped in barbed wire fences, countless cameras monitoring exquisitely decorated mausoleums in the center square of each graveyard, surrounded by smaller shrines and single tombstones. Every graveyard has a corporate banner above entrance and a small alcove with a receptionist. There are four letters - L V M H on a banner above the entrance to the most spacious graveyard with a unbelievably huge boxy building with square corners that looks like its full of cash, or treasures, or, most likely, expensive outfits. On the top of the boxy building - intricate symbol made of two enormous golden letters, L and V.
Banner above slightly smaller graveyard, next to LVMH one, reads "Kering", other banners read "Tapestry", "Capri Holding", "House of Chanel"
While visiting that new age masterplanned botique mountain-top graveyard valley (Plateau of Dead Designers, I'd name it if anybody would ask my opinion)
Oh, almost posted without the most important - the copy of the list of deceased, sorted by the graveyards names!

We watched "Powers of Ten" by IBM (very good video, highly recommend) and I thought it also works well to visualise wealth.
If you say 1$ net worth equals 1m of the side of the square, the square of the richest man alive would cross the orbit of Venus, Mars and Mercury. The video cuts of around the time his net worth of 233 Billion =2.33•10¹¹=230 000 000 000 USD is reached.
Now imagine travelling this distance. The speed is obviously how fast you get money. 1$/h=1 m/h =0.001km/h. Or 1km/h=1000$/h
If you ride a bike at 20 km/h or you have an hourly wage of 20k, you'd need 1329 years and 11 months of constant riding/working.
In a car averaging at 60km/h 443years, 4months and 21,5h.
If you fly the fastest manned plane at 7274 km/h you'd need to fly for over 1300 days or over 3.6 years. If you started at January first at midnight you'd be finished at August 27th at 15:53.
If you fly the fastest a human went at 39 897 km/h (return of the Apollo 10), you'd "only" need 9 months and 8 h.
Fun fact: 233 Billion USD is unimaginable much money, but still less than 2³⁸

Bernard Arnault Overtakes Elon Musk As World’s Richest Man
Tumblr media
Bernard Arnault, billionaire chairman and CEO of global luxury goods company LVMH, has again beaten Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, to emerge the richest man in the world.
This was revealed by Forbes real-time billionaires list, adding that Arnault’s net worth skyrocketed to $207.8 billion, $3.3 billion higher than Musk’s.
It disclosed that Arnault and his family’s net worth increased to $207.8 billion after a $23.6 billion rise on Friday, passing Musk’s $204.5 billion.
Meanwhile, Musk’s Tesla struggled in the stock market on Thursday, plummeting 13%, the X owner losing more than $18 billion in net worth, according to reports.
However, LVMH shares soared on Friday morning passing 13%.
The market cap of LVMH reached $388.8 billion on Friday, compared to Tesla’s $586.14 billion market cap.
In 2021, LVMH acquired Tiffany & Co. for nearly $16 billion—considered the largest luxury brand acquisition ever.
The 74-year-old Frenchman’s holding company Agache supports a venture capital firm called Aglaé Ventures, which Forbes reports invested in businesses like Netflix and ByteDance—the parent company of TikTok.
Last week, Arnault appointed two of his sons – Alexandre Arnault and Frédéric Arnault to the LVMH board.
While he nominated the 31-year-old Alexandre, as the executive vice president of product and communications at Tiffany and Co., he selected the 29-year-old Frédéric for the post of the chief executive of Tag Heuer.
Arnault’s decision made the two children join other siblings – Delphine, 48, who is also chairman and chief executive of Christian Dior Couture, and Antoine, 46, who runs multiple LVMH brands and is in charge of the group’s image and sustainability efforts.
The youngest sibling, Jean, 25, is Louis Vuitton’s watch director.
The richest man affirmed that his company is a family business, saying, “As I have always said, LVMH is a family-run group.”

The world’s five richest people doubled their fortunes, the poorest became even poorer
The world’s five richest people Elon Musk, Bernard Arnault, Jeff Bezos, Larry Ellison, Mark Zuckerberg have managed to more than double their fortunes since 2020, compared to the wealth of the poorest 60 per cent – nearly five billion people, Scotsman reports.
The charity Oxfam conducted a study which found that the fortunes of the world’s richest people – Elon Musk, owner of company X, Bernard Arnault, head of LVMH, the world’s largest luxury goods company, Amazon chief Jeff Bezos, Oracle chief Larry Ellison and Mark Zuckerberg of Meta – have increased by $464 billion (£364 billion), or 114 per cent, to $869 billion [£682] since 2020.
Over the same period, the total wealth of the poorest 4.77 billion people, who make up 60 per cent of the world’s population, fell by 0.2 per cent.
The report’s authors say that if current trends continue, the world will have its first trillionaire in a decade, but poverty will not be eradicated for another 229 years.

First of all I don't like very much the word luxury. Because you have something attached to it with means show off, with mean something of non significant, something futile, something useless. I think a better definition is combination of quality and creativity. Is how we define what we do. Bernard Arnault, Cambridge Union
