    So, if a billionaire doesn’t pay income tax, and company records are secret, and billionaires don’t seem to ever have anything as mundane as cash, or a billion dollars in the bank, how do we know that there are 157 billionaires in the UK?

    Man, I got £1,500 in the bank, pretty soon I’ll be a billionaire too!
