Eh. It's more that you hear a lot about the nuts ones. Number 5 on the richest list is currently a guy named Bernard Arnault, who mostly French people know about, while the infamous Peter Thiel is at 129.

Same story here. Rowling may or may not have a full billion, but she's famous and good at getting rage views like this one.

I dunno, it's usually the poorest nations that don't give any energy to the trans agenda.
