Forbes has updated its famous ranking of the richest people on Earth after the 2022 fiscal year. According to the results, the French businessman Bernard Arnault took first place. He also became the only one whose net worth exceeds $200 billion. Bernard ousted last year’s leader – Elon Musk, who lost about 25% of his wealth due to the fall in the shares of his companies and during the acquisition of Twitter. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos came in third, also losing about 30% of his capital compared to 2021. Oracle owner Larry Ellison and Berkshire Hathaway owner Warren Buffett ranked 4th and 5th (with a minimum difference of 1 billion). Bill Gates this time unexpectedly did not make it into the top 5 at all, falling to 6th position from 4th
