Your math is off by an order of magnitude. 7% of 2 billion is $140M.

Shoot, you're right. I miscounted the number of zeroes in the first step when copying from a python shell. All later numbers were computed from the initial values, which is why the order of magnitude was correct for the later values.

Your math is also off by an order of magnitude. It is $140M, but that makes it 2,000 households @$68k each.

You're right. I'll be honest, I just assumed OP did the math after $14M correctly and added a 0. I didn't even think about how off it sounds.
Fixed my comment, thanks for pointing that out.
That's the only way I've come up with to visualize massive wealth, as it is so far beyond anything I have experience with. That the closest visualization is the size of a town that could be entirely devoted in perpetuity to the whims of the person with that wealth.
