Amazon founder Jeff Bezos surpassed Bill Gates in July to become not only the world’s richest man, but the richest person in the world with an estimated net worth of $90.6 billion.
This has been a big year for Amazon, and in turn Bezos, which bought Whole Foods on June 16, 2017, and also had a record-breaking Amazon Prime Day.
Bezos, who bought The Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million, owns about 17% of Amazon.com, which is part of what buoyed him to the world’s richest man. Amazon’s stocks surged ahead of the online retail giant’s quarterly earnings report, adding at least $1 billion to Bezo’s overall net worth.
