Apple worth billions why? are they making billions a year in profit? erm no..... Its because Mr Silver Spoon and his 2% of the worlds population buddies are telling us they project it to be that way.
Facebook worth millions of pounds? I doubt its even turned over a million pounds in the last year.
Skype worth 8.5 billion .... ffs.

As the old saying goes:
If you owe the universe $1000, the universe owns you. But if you owe the universe $365,000,000,000, you own the universe

From the article
Earth's trade deficit with the rest of the universe ...
If our descendents build a Dyson sphere then we might end up with a deficit. But I very much doubt mankind will hang around here for more than a few thousand years when there are so many other places to explore, and certain stagnation for those who stay.

I have some magic beans here, which if planted will grow a beanstalk into the air that if you climb you will find a castle full of gold. I value these at £100 million, but will sell to you for just £1m. Can't think of anything that could go wrong getting that gold.
