An interesting infographic has been released by Exceptional Villas who have put together a list of countries with the maximum number of billionaires. We are not astonished with the toppers in the list. The top position goes to
USA with 442 billionaires, followed by China and
Russia. But what astonished us is that
India made it to the top 5. Indian comes at number 5 with 55 of them.
The richest person in the world position is still held by Carlos slim from
Mexico.
Bill gates is at the number 2 spot and Zara’s owner
Amancio Ortega of
Spain comes at number 3. Another fact that caught our eye is that in 2013 alone, the world added 200 more billionaires. Three co-founders of
Facebook are the youngest billionaires in the world. Now, with the Facebook’s acquisition of
Whatsapp, the popular messaging apps owner
Jan Koum will also join the list of people worth a lot of money.
The list of billionaires has 138 females in it. This shows that
women can do just as good as the men do in the world of money and commerce. Also, fashion, retail and investments have the most number of billionaires. Coming to think of it, the elite list of billionaires is not looking so elite with so many people joining the list lately.
