He is the second richest person in the world after shedding over $200 billion in net worth.

I'm sure he became the second richest person in the world by being a very forgetful loser of a capitalist

He's the #10 richest person in the world!

__pache__ | karma 71 | avg karma 0.39 · | 2023-08-13 14:47:25

He's literally the richest man in the world, what?

skinnymuch | karma 2879 | avg karma 0.75 · | 2020-04-22 10:41:57+00:00

He lost a lot of net worth in 2020. Regardless, he wasn’t 3rd richest before either. He’s 2nd richest Asian. Also just below Mackenzie Bezos.

He was among the world's richest 100 persons in 2004 to further that point.

kyberias | karma 2624 | avg karma 1.95 · | 2018-04-28 17:35:57+00:00

Dude, he's been the richest person for over _two decades_ almost every year starting from year 1995.

good_vibes | karma 448 | avg karma 2.06 · | 2017-04-06 07:44:26

He will be the richest man in the world by 2020 I think.

saretired | karma 208 | avg karma 2.7 · | 2016-04-23 05:30:27+00:00

Not to diminish the magnitude of his foundation, but he's still personally worth over $77 billion and is the richest person in the US (Forbes, 2015).

DevX101 | karma 8743 | avg karma 10.31 · | 2010-10-15 19:14:15+00:00

He's the richest man in the world. He has enough liquid assets to aggressively pursue charitable giving if he wants to.

ksec | karma 41816 | avg karma 3.09 · | 2013-11-09 02:51:56+00:00

And he recently admitted that only half of his wealth are in stocks. Which actually puts him near the top spot.

general_failure | karma 1610 | avg karma 1.57 · | 2014-10-29 05:58:00+00:00

He is a billionaire.

jonknee | karma 33361 | avg karma 4.51 · | 2019-06-27 18:00:39

But in the real world he is definitely not the wealthiest person in the world.

paulpauper | karma 43782 | avg karma 3.33 · | 2024-03-19 19:29:28

I am sure he has at least a billion. That is really rich

glandium | karma 4683 | avg karma 2.42 · | 2022-12-31 04:54:35

His net worth also grew very fast. It was about 20 billions 3 years ago. He's still well over that.

tobr | karma 9868 | avg karma 5.28 · | 2019-09-07 07:37:09+00:00

Maybe not surprising when you go to the world’s 2nd richest person, a person whose net worth keeps increasing by billions per year, to learn what it’s like to live on nothing.

cryoshon | karma 6490 | avg karma 3.17 · | 2018-09-25 12:05:59

i've heard his wealth estimated at $200 billion USD. but at this point i don't think it matters. he has an entire country.

braindeath | karma 300 | avg karma 2.91 · | 2019-11-11 06:45:19

That’s a bold claim. He lost a fortune that would have made him a billionaire and possibly one of the 100 richest people in the world. He is still a very, very wealthy man.

fbrncci | karma 382 | avg karma 2.22 · | 2022-04-24 19:04:25

He's the richest person I a society which wholesale measures accomplishments by wealth. If he isn't accomplished, then I don't know who is.

itsyaboi | karma 130 | avg karma 0.59 · | 2023-11-30 09:39:35

He seems to have a net worth of ~$20M.
