There aren’t many things $1 billion won’t get you, but a spot on The #Forbes400 list of the richest Americans is one of them. Not even $3 billion will do it. This year, the 400 wealthiest people in the U.S. are all worth at least $3.3 billion—a new record, and $400 million more than last year. That high bar means scores of America’s most prominent billionaires are simply not rich enough to make the cut. In fact, for the first time ever, there are more U.S. billionaires not on the list—415 and counting—than on it. These too-poor billionaires include celebrity moguls like Oprah Winfrey (estimated net worth: $3 billion), Kim Kardashian ($1.7 billion), Taylor Swift ($1.3 billion), Magic Johnson ($1.2 billion) and Arnold Schwarzenegger ($1 billion). https://trib.al/Qhncp8a

Karp, the philosopher-turned-entrepreneur, chalks up his and his company’s success to its belief in the “production of truth,” writing to Forbes that Palantir’s software “provides a single source of truth: a view, unvarnished, of an enterprise's entire ‘being,’ how all its people, assets, and actions connect to each other.” And $PLTR has plenty of room for growth, he adds: “We face increasing global disorder. We founded the company and built our products to combat a disordered world, and we think we’re made for this moment. We’re just getting started.” My latest, on Palantir's sky-high valuation and its CEO Karp, who joins Forbes’ list of the richest Americans for the first time: https://lnkd.in/e4BKVPBr
