For the first time, Forbes magazine's list of the 400 richest Americans consists exclusively of people worth $1 billion or more.

I can *imagine* what I'd do with a million...but I can't even conceptualize a billion. That's just absurd.

Richard Branson has more money than god. He owns his own island, and everything else he wants, and can set billions on fire if he chooses. I wouldn't call him a sucker for giving away 3 billion. It's like me giving $20 to UNICEF or something.

Are the purses and shoes matching or just complementing each other? There's a big difference there.
