TOP 10 RICHEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD

There is no question that billionaires have an extensive impact on the global economy, politics, and philanthropy. A lot of these billionaires founded technology giants, and most of their wealth remains invested in those companies to this day. Their wealth is largely based on publicly traded stocks, so their net worth can fluctuate as the market fluctuates.

Such as how Tesla Inc.’s shares rose in price in 2021, boosting the net worth of Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, and placing him 1st in the world ranking of billionaires.

On the other hand, in February 2022, Meta Platforms Inc.’s share price plunged after a disappointing earnings report, pushing Mark Zuckerberg out of the top 10.

Below are the top 10 richest people in the world as of today according to Forbes World’s Billionaires List.
