FlyerTalk 400
Bill Gates may have the most dough, but he doesn't get FF miles for Gulfstream V hops. Lets see where we all rank on the FlyerTalk 400: reply '5' if less than 100,000 miles; '4' if 100,001 to 500,000; '3' if 500,001 to 1,000,000; '2' if 1,000,001 to 2,000,000; and '1' if 2,000,001 + (total miles available for rewards, all airline programs).

I read that Bill Gates bought a Boeing plane, perhaps a 737, for $60 million. He doesn't own a Gulfstream.
Available miles may not be the best measure. Lifetime miles may be better. For example, in my case, I have something like 5-6 million lifetime miles earned on all airlines (mostly Delta), but only about 1 million sitting unused at the moment.
