Every year Forbes lists the wealthiest people on earth.

These people hold some pretty hefty positions. They rule the world!

Starting from number 10 working our way down, let's see who knocked Bill Gates off the top spot.

#10 Christy Walton & family $36.7 B
#9 Sheldon Adelson $38 B
#8 David Koch $40 B  
#7 Charles Koch $40 B
#6 Larry Ellison $48 B
#5 Warren Buffett $58.2 B
#4 Amancio Ortega $64 B
#3 Carlos Slim Helu & family $72 B
#2 Bill Gates $76 B

The Believers who pray their Two Raka'ah Sunnah of Salatul Fajr!

The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: “The two rak’ahs (Sunnah) of Fajr are better than this world and everything in it.” Narrated by Muslim

Very interesting time we are currently living in.

Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg etc were not on the list less than a decade ago. Today, Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have surpassed Bill Gates.

Today it is being said by the UN that if Elon Musk donated just 2% of his wealth, he could end world hunger, SubhanAllah!

With so much wealth at his disposal, the 1st position is still not Elon Musk!

Tbh the top few all depend on their share prices. Each time tesla announce something big their prices shoot up and he becomes richest.

Also these rich lists are only those who choose to declare their wealth im sure some of the top people in Russia China and Arab head of states are worth alot more but just dnt declare.

I'm not saying i wouldn't turn down that kinda money but honestly what are you meant to do with it. Id get bored after a few months. There only so many super cars id want and holidays to go then what?

That's not the point :(

There are people in Sub-Saharan Africa that are richer than all these people put together in cash amounts, crypto currencies or shares. You name it!

Can you imagine if 2 billion people aquired this wealth every morning. There would be no nation on the planet that would dare look at Palestine, Afghanistan, Kashmir or any other nation in the world.

But unfortunately, sleep is better for millions of us, if not, even for more than a billion of us :(

That was just hyperbole from the UN. $6bn wouldn't end world hunger and elon musk also volunteered to sell $6bn worth of shares if the UN could show how it would end the world hunger.

The research, salary, think tank alone will eat $10billion, then they will ask the poor countries to contribute.

Musk knows that very well too. Politicians and NGO's know how to usurp money, not use it wisely.

Allah knows best on the authenticity of this. But it is a good business lesson.
