Richest people in the world

                                               Richest people in the world



Amazon founder Jeff Bezos surpassed Bill Gates in July 2017 to become not only the world’s richest man, but the richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $112 billion, according to Forbes’s 2018 Billionaires List.











Bezos’s fortune jumped in 2017 amid a remarkable year for the retail giant, in which the company bought Whole Foods in June 2017 and had a record-breaking Amazon Prime Day.





Bezos, who bought The Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million, owns about 17% of Amazon.com, which is part of what buoyed him to the world’s richest man. Morgan Stanley analysts predicted the company would soon be worth $1 trillion, and Bezos himself earned $20 million in the last year.
