What was said
"There is such a disparity between wealthy and the poor. You still, when you drive around LA, there's still so many people living on the streets. There should— you shouldn't be able to have billions, right? I think there should be a limit to how much you can have because there's enough to go around to everyone."
Lewis Hamilton, worth an estimated $500 million and dating billionaire Kim Kardashian, told Jay Shetty's podcast that there should be legal limits on how much wealth individuals can accumulate. Hamilton, who moved to Monaco to avoid UK taxes and owns multiple supercars and a yacht, advocated for wealth redistribution despite acknowledging he didn't know how to implement such a law. Critics noted Hamilton's lifestyle contradicts his stated values about wealth inequality.
