Friday...
Since this meme was created, the number
of centibillionaires has doubled.
Here's a really neat link...
However, it takes way too much time to watch all of the "bubbles" to pass by, so here's a reference list to them, complete with links...
This is a small web page that shows how much money Jeff Bezos earned while you read the page. Some bubbles will compare Bezos' earnings with different salaries and some prices.
The numbers are based on Bezos' $56.7 billion gains during the first half of 2020 (source: Bloomberg and Buzzfeed), which translates into approximately $311 million per day, or $3,605 every second.

A happy-ending story...
Dog With 2 Legs That Survived Gunshot Wound Now Walks on Prosthetics
Amira’s story reminds humans to live in the present.
A two-legged dog named Amira is inspiring humans around the world.
Amira was found by Soi Dog Foundation, an organization that cares for Thai street dogs.
Across the globe in Canada, Lara Pleasence saw Amira on the rescue’s social media and knew the 2-legged, blind-in-one-eye dog needed to be a part of her family.
“She was found wandering the streets at nine years old after somebody had shot her in the head,” Pleasence told Inside Edition Digital. “She had lived her whole life without her front legs. So, she was literally crawling around trying to survive.”
