The gathering of the world’s richest people at South Florida’s Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) shows how Mar-a-Lago has become a new center of power and influence. President-elect Donald Trump is preparing for his second term, and the arrival of billionaires from states like Hawaii, California, Texas, and Washington to Palm Beach highlights a major political activity.

Some Important Observations:

Surge in Visits: According to JetSpy data, the world’s 6 richest billionaires have visited PBI 25 times since November, which is many times more than the 10 trips last year. This surge shows how significant Trump’s private club Mar-a-Lago has become for business and politics.

Diverse Attendees:

Apart from Trump’s old supporters, new billionaires are also trying to build their relations with the President-elect. Trump’s “reward allies, punish enemies” approach is putting everyone in a race to get in his favor.

Strategic Meetings:

Mar-a-Lago is no longer just a private club, but has become a political and business center, where leaders discuss policies and make their connection with the administration.
