What is a grammatically correct sentence?
He gets

above sentences grammatically correct?
What are some advantages of waiting till Sunday when you can understand everything that you would like to know about it?
The correct version of it
would be He’s got more wealth than that of Steve, John and Michelle put together?
And he’s got more
wealth than his wife’s, John’s and Michelle’s, all of It’s Aiming On. (as you said), and He’s got more wealth than He has?
“That of Steve’s, John’s and Michelle’s”, is wrong — “that of” already indicates possessiveness so it is incorrect and redundant to add “‘s” to indicate possessiveness.
If Steve, John, Michelle, et.al., want to say “than that of Steve, John” then that sounds more natural to me but I don’t have a technical
reason to explain it.
