    I love NPR's Planet Money. I try to listen to every episode, usually on my way to school in the morning. I is not at all unusual for me to use the very podcast I listened to on the way in during that day's class! All econ teachers should be listening to Planet Money (no, like economics, it is NOT only about money!)

The top 400, all of whom are worth at least $1 billion, saw their combined wealth increase 8 percent this year, to the dizzying total of $1.37 trillion, according to analysis from CNN.
  • This means the 400 richest people in America account for about 2.6 percent of the nation's private wealth
