2. Warren Buffett – $75.6 Billion
Warren Buffett is considered one of the world’s most well-known and successful investors and has a rich educational background in economics and business. His very first endeavor into the world of business was the creation of the Buffett Partnership, which went on to accumulate the Berkshire Hathaway. He became chairman and largest shareholder since 1970 but lives quite a different type of lifestyle than some of the other billionaires in the world. He is known for living a life of frugality instead of wasting his wealth on lavish homes and yachts. He has also vowed to give the majority of his fortune to charitable causes. As of 2017, he is said to have a net worth of an estimated $75.6 billion and has already reportedly given over $28 billion to charities.
