Forbes US Richest - My Recommendations
1) Those that inherited their billions should be left off the list
2) The Waltons should just merged themselves into one category, I do not really care if they occupy 6th, 7th, 9th, and 11th in the rankings. Just merge their fortunes (minux their inheritance), and give them first place.
3) Those that hold most of their billions in stock (on paper), example Bill Gates, The Google Twins should get a penalty.
4) Those that have done unethical or illegal things should be dropped off the list (example #140 - Nancy Walton Laurie; her daughter was found to pay her USC roommate $20,000 to do her homework - U Missouri dropped her daughter's naming rights from the basketball arena)
