The top 10 individuals on the list — who all held the exact same spots on last year’s list — are collectively worth $US362 billion. To put that in perspective, that’s 67% of the total wealth of the top 50 list.
Washington-based Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates was the richest individual on the list with an estimated net worth of $US70.8 billion, followed by Nebraska’s Warren Buffett with a personal fortune of roughly $US60 billion. They’re also two of the most philanthropic men on the list, haven given away a combined $US48 billion in their lifetimes (so far).
