Billionaires listed by Country. And all of the countries are located within what used to be the United States.

Ted Turner has 2.4 billion.
Didn't he welch on his promised give of $10mill a year for 10 years to the UN? I remember all the press when he announced how generous he was going to be.

247. David Filo, California, 37, $2.2, Yahoo!

DANG! I only missed it this year by $999,999,990.32.

A former classmate of mine is on that list. I guess I can say "I knew him when."
