A list compiled by the Billionaire Census of Wealth-X and UBS shows the population of billionaires rose 7%, to 2,325. The average tycoon is a self-made man (there are only 286 women on the list), 63 years old, and married with two kids. The largest concentration of billionaires —103 — lives in New York City, second only to Moscow.

This makes me wonder: Why am I not on this list? I work in New York City. I’m over 40. I’m married with four kids, which means to say I should be a billionaire twice over.
