What is IKEA?
And I don't watch super rich people's lives.
It would be like a dog in front of a butchery looking everything he will never have and I have higher priorities in life.
IKEA is a furniture company. They're supposed to be affordable and look good. Their products come as flat packs which you then assemble yourself. Shame we don't have them here in New Zealand. And even if we did, they'd probably be overpriced as hell.
And yeah, $90 million a day is completely unreasonable. That's about a billion dollars every ten days. Or $33 billion a year. Not a single person in this world makes that kind of money. Not even Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, etc.
Also an interesting thing I found is that the founder of IKEA (Ingvar Kamprad) was 17 years old when he started the company.
Here is the part from Wikipedia about his net worth:
According to Swedish business weekly Veckans Affärer,[6] he is one of the wealthiest people in the world. This report is based on the assumption that Kamprad owns the entire company, an approach that both IKEA and the Kamprad family reject. Kamprad retains little ownership in the company, having transferred his interest to Stichting INGKA Foundation and INGKA Holding as part of a complex tax sheltering scheme that leaves his actual degree of control vague.[7]
In March 2010, Forbes magazine estimated his fortune at US$23 billion, making him the eleventh richest person in the world. A year later, he fell from 11th place to 162nd after his lawyers produced documents that prove the foundation he created, and heads, in Liechtenstein owns IKEA, and its bylaws bar him and his family from benefiting from its funds.[8] In October 2012, Kamprad was listed as the fifth wealthiest person in the world in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with an estimated net worth of $42.6 billion.[9] As of February 2014, Kamprad's net worth was reported by Forbes to be $4.2 billion.[1]
