Trillionaire…

Court Painter seen with his least favourite number painting.

Most are familiar with the expression to ‘look like a million dollars’ as to look extremely attractive and well-dressed.

Court Painter and his press attache AHM conducted a photo shoot to illustrate how to ‘look like a trillion dollars’, expressed by two satyr-like figures of the arts. Drink it in, this is what the morbidly rich future looks like!

We’re fast approaching the era of the trillionaire. What can we do to stop it?

In the fight for a balanced economy and healthier democracy, the increasing power of the ultra-rich is a calamity we cannot afford

COURT PAINTER

PRESS ATTACHE AHM

‘To celebrate the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, Oxfam releases a study of how much of the world’s wealth the ultra-rich own. This year’s was a doozy. The five richest men in the world were revealed to have doubled their wealth in the years since 2020. Seven of the 10 biggest corporations in the world have a billionaire as their CEO or principal shareholder. Combined, the value of these companies – which include Apple, Microsoft and Saudi Aramco – exceeds the GDP of every single country in Africa and Latin America combined. That’s 87 countries: virtually everything bought, sold, consumed produced and dreamed up by two billion people in a whole year.

The charity also reported that, within a decade, the world will probably see its first trillionaire. A trillion is a number (it’s one followed by 12 zeros) to numb the mind.’
