Wrong!!!.. Jeff Bezos merely came close when Bill started doling out billions to assist corrupt dumb African countries like Nigeria.

Sheuns:
United States alone has over 30 billionaires on that list.

wealthpreach:
bill is more involved in charity, sold over 85 million shares... He's no longer the highest share holder in Microsoft. He has given over 40 Billion dollars in charity. Do your research...

dangoteinlaw:
do u know that all schools now download textbooks from a website single handedly funded by billgates, now think about how much the authors will have bill pay them to get their textbooks online for free download. Billgate should be the God all Churches pray to.

SocialJustice:
Where is your father in the list?

Had Steve never been ousted from Apple back in 1985 and never dumped all of his shares out of anger, today his 20% stake in Apple would be worth $210 BILLION.

Gate My Favourite Bill

chai do you know i was search for my name there??

Angelfrost:


You see.... If it's only the antiretroviral medications for HIV management to most African countries, or research institutes across 3rd world nations... That guy has done more for Africa than all our wealthy clergy men in Africa put together.

Femeto:
U get eye so?

AvalonSpace:
He's number eighty seven.

dangoteinlaw:
comparing clergymen to billgate sounds insulting, that man has done more for Africa than Africans have done for themselves. Most of the free education you see govt claiming to provide, the free textbooks, biros, etc were actually from bill gate via the UN. The govt will be ashamed to mention his name lol

How do you sell your data?

franchasng:
When you are in certain countries or environment, you don't need to dream or wish of becoming a billionaire to be on world billionaires list unless you are from a highly influential political family like Aliko Dangote.


Dangote didn't become rich by hardwork or any special talent or invention, he became who he is today based on his family background which gave him political connections and favors from successive Nigerian governments.


So people should stop celebrating Dangote as if he did anything special to become rich; he was just fortunate to come from a rich family background with strong political links, nothing special


People that worth celebration are the likes of Mark that invented something from nowhere at his age, people like Seun of Nairaland, people like Linda Ikeji, and all the people who worked the soil from nothing to build their wealth not people climbing through political ladder enjoying free FOREX money and government monopoly in business because of their influential family background and where they come from.



So all you Nigerians dreaming to be like Dangote, you all are wasting your time because Nigerian environment and government don't make policies that encourage and favor people from nobody's family background to climb to that ladder of becoming a billionaire in the world.


Even Otedola, his father was the former governor of Lagos. So if you look at all the so called billionaires from Nigeria, especially those from Northern Nigeria, all their wealth can be traced to politics and Nigeria's crude oil shady deals.


So if you want to become a billionaire in $$ and you are a Nigerian that doesn't come from the top looting political families in Nigeria, you are wasting your time, you better find a way to get out of Nigeria to counties like USA that support dreams of anybody ready to work and use his or her talent.


All you need to make it big in countries like USA, etc is the talent, the zeal to work and focus. Then find one challenge in the society there or a problem within your location in that country and use technology to find a solution to it and you are on your way to becoming rich, unlike in Nigeria where dreams are killed everyday, while looters, business fraudsters and political clouts are the only people that make free money and still get celebrated like they did anything special
