Richest People in The World 2023
The influence of billionaires on the world’s politics, business, and philanthropy is enormous. According to reports, there will be 2668 billionaires in the globe in 2023.
The people on this list are members of an even smaller group and hold even greater authority. A large portion of the wealth of many technological industry titans’ founders is still vested in the businesses they founded.
