Bhanky is pretty poor by this metric.
Tough for the gays to attain this type of wealth too.
I don’t know if I want more than 2 kids myself though, we’ll see.
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/opinion/children-parents-billionaires-wealth-fathers.html * **A New Fertility Trend Among the Ultra-Rich:** While birthrates are hitting record lows across the developed world due to people feeling priced out of having children, a small group of ultra-wealthy men are doing the opposite. They are using their nearly limitless resources to reproduce at an unprecedented scale, creating a stark example of extreme modern inequality.
* **Reproduction at an "Industrial Scale":** The article highlights several billionaires and high-profile figures who have fathered, or attempted to father, massive numbers of children using reproductive technologies, surrogacy, or sperm donation. Examples include Stefan Soloviev (22 children), Pavel Durov (over 100 children via sperm donation), Greg Lindberg (at least 12), and Elon Musk (at least 14 known children), alongside reports of wealthy individuals aiming for hundreds of offspring.
* **The Role Model Effect of Elon Musk:** As the world's richest man (now described as a trillionaire), Musk wields massive influence. He has publicly joked about aiming for "legion level" numbers of children and has openly encouraged other wealthy or "smart" people to aggressively reproduce.
* **Driven by Ego and Elitism:** The author compares these modern "megafathers" to historical kings who viewed their bloodlines as divine. Rather than just a desire for family, their motivations appear rooted in an exalted view of their own DNA, a belief that their specific genetics should dominate, and a desire to spread their lineage on a massive scale.
