Jeff Bezos Reclaims World’s Richest Man Title, Few Hours After Losing To Bill Ga by adenugatoyin(f): 8:50am On Oct 27, 2019 |
Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos, has reclaimed the World's Richest Man title few hours after losing the spot to Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. Bezos who ended Gates' 24-year run as world's richest man in 2018 and became the first man on earth with a net worth of $160 billion, lost the spot on Thursday October 24, after Amazon's lacklustre Q3 results resulted in him losing nearly $7 billion in stock value. Amazon shares fell 7 per cent in after-hours trading. He returned to the top position at the end of Friday’s markets. His shares fell by just 1% to $1,760.78, putting his net worth at $109.9 billion. Bill Gates is currently worth $105.8 billion. Bezos’ brief slip on Thursday wasn’t entirely due to his Amazon shares falling as he would never have lost the No. 1 spot if he and ex wife, MacKenzie Bezos hadn’t divorced. 49-year-old MacKenzie received a quarter of their Amazon holdings in July. With a net worth of $32.7 billion, she is among the top 20 wealthiest people in the world.

adenugatoyin: Whether Bill Gates is number 1 on number 2 on the rich list the main thing is that he is made for life even if he lives up to 150 years! |
