Forbes.com is the “Home Page for the World’s Business Leaders” according to their website. The comments, on the other hand, seem to be the playground for the world’s craziest internet users.
For example, in a thread about the world’s richest billionaires, we have a guy asking the billionaires to throw some cash his way.
hi my name is val i am appealing with knees bow down to all rich guys to please help me help others who are in need I am a filipino citizen that would like to help poor people that eats once a day, street children, begging in the streets just to meet their need. A few hundred dollars will do. Pleeeaaase. My email is: syaoran_2@yahoo.com. Thank You and may God Bless U.
Because everyone knows that Forbes.com comments are like the Batphone for billionaires.
Here’s another commenter who wants funding for his books, one of which is in English! Hooray!

And of course, how could it be Forbes.com without a subtle right-wing stab at government spending, even if his math is a little completely wrong.
The U.S. annual deficit, (the amount over the annual budget), is:
$648 Billion Dollars
The net worth of U.S. Billionaires is:
$421 Billion Dollars
If we took the net worth away from these billionaires, it still could not cover the annual deficit.
Just remember this the next time some congressman or senator says the solution is to tax the rich.
The answer is to control spending.
But what really jumped out at me was the cascading craziness of a poster going by the nom-de-bonkers momboo.

It’s hard to quantify what exactly makes this so ridiculous. Is it the references to billions of dollars earned from wrestling and stashed in secret bank accounts in New York? Is it using the comments section of a website to get in touch with billionaires? Is it the fact that he tried to pose as Donald Trump, Bill Gates, and Warren Buffet via the “tag” feature while simultaneously using the same username every time? Or is it that he came back and commented every few days for two weeks on the same post?
Whatever the reason, if he wants to go into business with me, he can contact me through this site, because I am a businessman with billions and want to go into business with business.

It’s a shame that first guy is reduced to eating street children.
I mean, they’re so gamey.
I must find this! I would love to give up my family and home and just have a billionaire to sponsor my sitting and blogging all day.
His name is actually spelled “Buffett”, not that anyone was looking for more evidence that those postings were forged.
Billy Wayne Engle?
You mean this guy?

“How I Stay Motivated: i have ADHD and a Learning problems.”
I saw this thread after I Googled “Billy Engle Jr.” to research a prospect who had signed up on our company Web site to get some information on marketing small businesses. I’m almost glad that I neglected to do the research before the call, because it was, like, an experience. This guy was off-the-wall batsh*t insane.
Having had no prior knowledge of the prospect, it took me a few minutes to really get the gist of what he was saying, but I’m here to tell you from personal experience that it was all about being friends with Warren Buffet, having Donald Trump host his Web site, and getting his funding (no less than $120 billion worth) from the Feds after performing mercenary duties(!) in Kuwait for the military. Oh yes. Best cold call prospect EVER.
THIS IS HILARIOUS! Poor Billy seems to have some sort of mental disorder. Poor Guy! Still funny though!
Billy Wayne Engle Jr will kick your scrawny nerd asses once I tell him about these postings. I am a billionaire businessman and consider Billy Wayne Engle Jr my 3rd best buddy and golf partner after 1. Donald Trump, 2. Bill Gates but before 4. Warren Buffett. Gisele Bundchen is (going to be) one hell of a lucky lady (someday).
