That would make the Mayor of New York the Richest Man in New York. When has that ever happened? To celebrate, all New Yorkers should throw all their loose change in the streets so Hizzoner will never have to touch the dirty ground again.

As someone worth less than 0.001 billion, the difference between Bloomberg having $5B and $20B is basically insignificant, because either way it's way WAY more than I'm likely to ever have.

I think he should make a will that leaves $1000 to every resident in NYC.

KEEP THE BLOOM ON THE BURG Here was a Caesar! When comes such another? --Marc Antony The city's grateful business tycoons Demand another such-- A second Bloomberg who can be Counted on in a clutch. Our mayor's always shown himself Completely at his ease In dealing with the real estate Moguls' many pleas. But why another? Michael Bloomberg's The perfect corporate investor-- Let's crown him New York's Mayor for Life (With Donald Trump court jester).

I think she wanted to strike home the point that Bloomberg is indeed, very rich. Ugh, he shouldn't waste his time with the times. He should continue building up Bloomberg.

How much many more is many, many, billions? I can settle for many billions. Even just billions would do.
