It wasn’t long ago when someone in Silicon Valley coined the term ‘The Three Comma Club’ to describe that small group of individuals whose net worth is one billion dollars or more. According to Forbes’ World’s Billionaires List for 2025, there are around 3 000 dollar billionaires in the world. The wealth, power and influence wielded by these moneymakers and money spenders is gargantuan. For instance, the top ten richest individuals have a combined net worth exceeding $2 trillion. Billionaires make up approximately 0.000034% of the world’s population. That’s about one in every 3 million people. This book takes a deep dive into the world of billionaires, blending humour, insight, and a touch of ‘eat the rich’ irreverence to examine the rise and occasional downfall of the mega-mega-rich.
Gus Silber, well-known journalist and wordsmith, has over the last few years written some extraordinary commentary pieces on his journeys around his neighbourhood in Johannesburg and his digital wanderings through the global village we call social media, and posted them to Facebook. Gus’s followers know what insightful and frankly charming pieces he writes, and we’re bringing those digital missives to the page and discerning masses. This is a collection of over 50 of Gus’s most-loved social media posts – covering everything from understanding house-breaking hadedas, the meaning of pathos, deciphering Joburg style, and everything in between. My F*k, Marelize, you’ll want to get your hands on this one.
