In total, he is estimated to have a net worth of $39 billion. Close behind is Pony Ma Huateng, CEO of Tencent.

How does this vast wealth compare to the richest people in the world? According to the latest Forbes ranking, The richest person in the world is Jeff Bezos, with a staggering net worth of $131 billion.
