Meanwhile, ex-Broadcast.com owner Mark Cuban is in 215th place, with assets of $1.3 billion. The owner of the Dallas Mavericks was 179th in the Forbes 400 list for 2003, also with $1.3 billion, in an illustration of how the ranks of U.S. billionaires swelled in the last year [emphasis added].

I can hear George now—"So why are people complaining about the economy? I just don't get it."
