Some internet trivia...


It's been a while since I've updated the Internet Millionaires page

The recent surge in prices for Internet related stocks has produced 
some interesting results.


As of the market close on Friday Nov. 11, 1995, the Internet has its 
first Billionaire.  Netscape's Jim Clark shot past the billion dollar 
mark when Netscape closed at $110.00.


It takes a net worth of $340 million to qualify for the Forbes list of 
the 400 most wealthy Americans.  At current market prices both 
Netscape's Jim Barksdale and UUnet's Rick Adams both qualify.


New Centimillionaires include Schrader of PSI, Sidgmore of UUnet and  
Marc Andreessen of Netscape.


Only in America!
