The Forbes 2018 Billionaires List is out and President Trump has dropped more than 200 spots since last year to number 766 on the list, where he's tied with more than 20 others.
The magazine estimates his net worth at $3.1 billion, down from $3.5
billion last year. Forbes said that Trump's fortune fell in part due to
declining Manhattan real estate values, as well as lower revenues at
several Trump golf properties.
Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos
topped the list for the first time this year, according to Forbes. He's
currently worth an estimated $112 billion, up $39.2 billion from 2017.
Forbes said that jump amounts to the biggest one-year gain ever.
Bezos knocked Microsoft founder Bill Gates
to the No. 2 spot, after Gates spent four straight years on top. Gates
is worth an estimated $90 billion, up from $86 billion last year,
according to Forbes.
The Bezos bump also pushed Warren Buffett down to No. 3. Buffett is
worth an estimated $84 billion. All together, the billionaires on the
list are worth $9.1 trillion. Forbes identified a record 2,208
billionaires around the world in 2018, up from 2,043 last year.
