Google Guys Bump Trump -- by $30 Billion!

Donald Trump may have more than 40 buildings and a vast empire of Trump-branded golf courses, casinos, and cufflinks, but one little white webpage -- Google -- has made its founders about $30 billion richer than all that brick, mortar and ego have made the Donald.
Trump and the Google boys.
Forbes magazine has released their annual list of billionaires around the world, and His Hairness -- never one to let you forget that he's a billionaire -- clocked in at 314th place out of the 946 nine-figured names, with an estimated net worth of $2.9 billion. Not too shabby. But Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page, who are both about half Trump's age (60), are worth a whopping $16.6 billion apiece -- and together, more than 10 times the worth of Trump.

Even Oprah is practically a beggar in this club, with a $1.5 billion fortune. Girl, please. But Sergey and Larry have a long way to go to get into the same league as top billionaire Bill Gates, who's got -- get ready to shake your head -- $56 billion.

18. Google money isn't real money. It's fake stock market bubble money, and now that the lawsuits have started because of their flagrant copyright violations, the whole thing is going to come down like a house of cards. How soon you forget how these schemes work. Granted, Mr. Google will cash out his stock before the collapse and be worth gobs, but nevertheless, Google makes it's living stealing content from other companies who actually do all the work and pay employees to do it. If the newspapers and magazines weren't in business, all Google would be is a bunch of links to mostly nowhere.

19. I am successful myself and have no problem with others doing well and far better as these people proved they have. There is nothing wrong with Trump and he is more honest about what he does. You don't make money most ... not all .. but most of the time by not being creative. I think Trump is a good man, no drugs, no drinking, and doesn't attack people unless he's being lied about and he was with Rosie. His relationships are his and virtually all of you here have failed ones, or you wouldn't be here, your mate would bolt, unless he's hooked too. TRUMP DESERVES HIS WEALTH AND HE IS A GOOD DAD, I HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH COMPLIMENTING HIM FOR HIS SUCCESS AND YOU SHOULD NOT EITHER. Now let's move on the the matters that matter.

23. The two of them may be super rich...but did you hear of their latest secret? Coming in less than a year...they are going to revolutionize the search engine. In 2005 they bought the rights to an invention/working theory algorithm from an Aussie Grad student, Ori Allon, that is going to make them probably twice as rich, if not more! In fact, the student is now working for them in their California Head Quarters! Ya, so much for finishing his studies in Aussie land, but I'm sure the university will give him honorary grads! Why not, the Google boys had to buy the rights from the school, as well. So, if you haven't bought stock in Google yet, you better soon, 'cause they ain't done with us yet! You heard it here, and you heard it real! Remember the name, Ori Allon! He alone will probably buy out Trump!

28. I will bet you the donald (combover kid) will dispute those figures of his worth, in Forbes mag. He'll say he is worth TEN TIMES THE PUBLISHED AMOUNT. More, naturally, than our google lads. And the Trumpster's nose will grow out, even more. And that's the truth.

29. At least Trump built something. All the google boys have done is collect ad money from people wanting to put their name in front of all those unemployed or underemployed people who set around all day browsing the web for "who knows what"?

30. Jake, I have never used anything Trump built in my life. Much more people have used Google so you're full of shit.
