5. Michael Dell – Net Worth: $18.7 billion
Michael Dell is a very successful business magnate and investor. Even as a kid, he was very fascinated by the business world. So in his early teens, he would save up money he earned from working part-time jobs and invest it in precious metals and stocks. As soon as he got his first computer, at the age of 15, he became fascinated by these machines. Only four years later, he managed to establish the company known as Dell, with a modest budget of $1,000. At that time, he was a student at the University of Texas. However, his business was doing so well that he felt he needed to drop out in order to focus on it. That type of thinking certainly paid off, as he’s now worth $18.7 billion and is currently the 50th richest man in the world.
