There is no mathematical way for his work to be worth 5 billion, not even if he had magical powers and turned the whole garden into pure gold in the process. Not if he worked for 500 years straight, every day, without a break.
A billion is such a fantastically large number people can’t relate to how much more it is than any normal job pays in wages.
…creating yet another billionaire, who, like all the others, didn’t earn that money. As is tradition.
That guy earned it by gardening

He worked and apparently someone valued his work plus presence plus…😉 For billions. He won it.
If you can get paid for your efforts, your product, and someone values it, then that’s what it’s worth.
Lol, no, no he didn’t.
Technically he’s also removing himself in the process, so nil sum gain.
Way to deliberately miss the point… I said “creating” not “adding”, it isn’t about the number of billionaires, but how they become that.
And you missed my point - it’s migrating value, not creating new value. Anyway, being pedantic also misses the point - we should take up gardening. 👍
