Billionaires and Millionaires to Cut the Ribbon at Barclays Center on Friday

Barclays Bank

Two multi-billionaires and two multi-millionaires (plus some politicians) will be cutting the ribbon at the Barclays Center arena this Friday.

Presiding over the ceremony will be Mayor Michael Bloomberg (worth $22 billion); Brooklyn Nets owner and Russian Mikhail Prokhorov ($18 billion), Forest City Ratner CEO Bruce Ratner ($400 million), part-owner Jay-Z ($480 million) and Borough President Marty Markowitz (priceless).

That's about $41 billion dollars worth of humanity on stage Friday morning, not counting the little people.
