in #life7 years ago

Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates have always been switching positions to become the world’s richest persons. Few days back it was Bill Gates and now, once again, Jeff Bezos has got it back.

Amazon’s Black Friday sale has helped Jeff Bezos become the richest man again and this time, his net worth has crossed $100 billion.

His net worth was upped by $2.4 billion on Friday alone, to become $100.3 billion. There was a 2 percent rise in the Black Friday sales.

Moreover, with the $100 Million milestone, Jeff has become the 1st billionaire to get this 12 figure net worth since 1999; yes, in 1999, it was Bill Gates who reached this milestone.

More and more people are curious to know what exactly Bezos is going to do with this wealth

As per Bloomberg Index, here’s the latest list of world’s richest people;

Apart from Amazon holdings and cash investments, Bezos even owns $3 Billion stake in Blue origin. Apart from that, he also owns The Washington Post. He’s indeed a lucky guy; wish we could have a net worth of $100 billion too, LOL.
