This data is barely readable, it totally can not be considered beautiful

Billionaire by which metric?
Blackdutchie on
Are the points on a city scale? I think we’re losing a lot of readability on the American east coast, in China, and in Europe because of this.
And the lines, as they are now, can mostly be used to tell one thing: That most billionaires that move between countries, appear to move between Europe and the US (but not in which direction).

Why is it that most of the hotspots are near coastlines of some country (more like continents as well)?

Most useless graph of 2025??????

Why is Moscow attracting so many billionaires from all around the world?

I’m guessing if a location should be both red and blue, ONLY the blue color is represented?

It actually really surprises me to see so many from Europe I don’t know why

One of those times where Raw data in excel would be more usable than the chart or graph or whatever this monstrosity is, built on top of it

A ratio with a color gradient would have been better

Maybe it would be easier to read if the relocation lines were a gradient between red (birthplace) and blue (residence)

As someone who teaches data science on the high school level, this is an example of a weak data visualization.
There are too many lines on it and it also doesn’t really show any kind of pattern (with the exception of that almost all of the billionaires live in the Northern Hemisphere.)

1 billionaire lives in the Dominican Republic that was born in Venezuela. Wonder who that is.

Data is a hot mess of dots and lines that make absolutely no sense to anyone but OP…

Billionaires don’t really live in one place anymore.
Before, when the richest felt they had a real home, they would donate money for good causes in their home town / country. But today, they don’t feel as attached and spend the money on a yacht or something instead.

Basically a lot are moving to fiscal paradises to avoid taxes. And we allow to have one fiscal paradise in the hearth of Europe.

This infographic is awful no offense. I just wanted to be able to know how many billionaires currently reside in X, Y, or Z country and I have no idea how to determine that. I just see bubbles.

I can see there are many billionaires in France and nearby places, but they have a great socialized medical offering to the commoners. How kind of them.
