Dearest friends
Bill Gates is poorer…Indeed he is
poorer…He is poorer by $4.2 billion than a year ago, but he remains the richest
person in the world following Forbes' 30th Annual World's Billionaires list.
The technology guru has been No. 1
for 3 years in a row and topped the list for 17 of the last 22 years,
with a current net worth of $75 billion, down from $79.2 billion in 2015.
Spanish clothing retailer Amancio
Ortega (No. 2) (best known for the Zara fashion chain), up two spots, increased
his net worth $2.5 billion for a total of $67 billion.
The world actually has 1810
Billionaires with an aggregate Net Worth of $6.48 Trillion.
This year China got 70 new
Billionaires whereas Germany produced 28 and India created 8 new Billionaires.
As per Forbes wealth is stretching
to new corners of the world, with one new country, Qatar, represented in the
list.
Wish you all a wealthy day.
