Of the nearly 8 billion people in the world, only 2,781 are billionaires. Among them, only three people are part of the exclusive $200 billion club: Tesla CEO and the richest person in the world Elon Musk, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and the recent joiner Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
According to Bloomberg billionaire’s index, Musk has a net worth of $270 billion, Bezos is worth $215 billion, and Zuckerberg stands at $202 billion, as of September 26. This puts the Facebook co-founder ahead of other major tech executives including Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison — who is also fighting for a spot in the club — and former Microsoft CEOs Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer.
Zuckerberg not only broke into the $200 billion club recently, but he has also been the biggest winner on the list having accumulated dozens of billions in wealth in 2024, Fortune reported. The 40-year-old’s wealth has ballooned by an incredible $71.8 billion this year, as per the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
