Perot was worth $3billion in real dollars and had it all in government bonds earning 3% a year tax free. If my math is right that’s $900,000 a year.

Anyone know where he is on the list?

You’re off by a factor of 100. 3% on $3 billion is $90 million per year.

You are a few decimal points off. Three percent of $3b is $900m.

Also, for those complaining about not that many numbers on their calculator, if you have the new iOS 11.0.3 on your smartphone or iPad, open the calculator and turn your device into landscape mode. You will have 16 digits available - up to one quadrillion.
