OK, outside of Warren Buffett and Bill Gates, give me the names of a couple of dozen people who have made BILLIONS. It should be easy for you since there is "no scarcity".

Lynch and Soros (maybe not long term, I dunno) are the only other ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Bill Gates doesn't count, he built a company, not really an investor. The billions I referred to were cumulative billions; I never said individuals became billionaires. As to millionaires, just pull out the yellow pages and start calling. We've got a zillion of them now with the run-up in the market from those that don't buy & sell, but just buy and hold.
