Quite insane...

I was looking at the report and it listed "Billionaire Wealth" but Seattle was nowhere to be found on the list. I think the report is rather incomplete? I mean, Bill Gates alone has more money than the sum of what was listed for Los Angeles in this report. If you combine Gates, Paul Allen, and Steve Ballmer, then that's nearly $120 billion alone which is almost double what LA is listed as in the report. Add in Jeff Bezons and it's basically $150 billion. Yet Seattle is nowhere to be found on the list...

^it's generally wise advise to always take every list with a grain of salt. Let's be real: every rich individual has homes in at least 4-5 different cities.
