Who Are The 15 Richest People In The World

The richest billionaires in the world are not as rich as they used to be. But they are still quite rich.

In the aftermath of the coronavirus pandemic, the world’s 2,095 billionaires own a total of $ 8 trillion, a reduction of $ 700 billion compared to 2019, according to the Forbes list of billionaires.

This is a fairly diverse group; some have built their fortunes through retail giants, while others have gotten rich off their technological innovations.
