$927 Billion in Public Funds if SF Bay Area Individual Wealth is Capped at $1 Billion
Step 1: Sum up total net worth of all SFBAY billionaires
$964 billion
Step 2: Subtract $1 billion per billionaire to be kept individually
37 billionaires × $1 billion = $37 billion kept individually.
Step 3: Calculate remainder to fund
$964 billion (total net worth) – $37 billion (kept) = $927 billion to go into the public fund.
💥 Final Estimate:
If every billionaire kept only $1 billion, $927 billion would be pooled into a public fund.
SUMMARY:
This is a massive amount, enough to radically transform public services, housing, healthcare, education, and infrastructure in the Bay Area — and beyond.
