Jeff Bezos Tops Forbes List Of Richest Americans

Description

Since becoming the richest man in modern history earlier this year, Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos has taken the No. 1 spot on Forbes' list of the 400 richest Americans— a shift that bumped Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates to second place. Bezos' net worth jumped from $81.5 billion on last year's list to this year's $160 billion. He's the first person to surpass a net worth of $150 billion since Forbes began tracking the richest Americans over 30 years ago, and the first person to bump Gates out of the No. 1 spot on the list for 24 years. Following Bezos and Gates is Warren Buffett, with $88.3 billion; Mark Zuckerberg, with $61 billion; and Larry Ellison with $58.4 billion.
