The rise in the net worth of global billionaires is in sharp contrast to the rest of the world. Sure, we may be saving money on eating out and concerts and travel, but many industries haven’t rebounded from the shutdowns imposed in an effort to control the spread of coronavirus. Broadway plans to be shut down until at least the fall/winter of 2021. Live music is at a standstill, and there are no concerts or music festivals as we knew them just eight short months ago. Restaurants and bars and night clubs face uncertain futures. Gyms and fitness studios are struggling. You get the picture. Nearly 36 million people have been infected with the coronavirus worldwide and more than one million people have died as a result of it.
