Bezos is by far the richest person on the planet. Bill Gates is the second richest with a current net worth of $98 billion . That means Jeff isn’t too far away from being TWICE as rich as Gates. That is stunning. Especially when you consider that in January 2018, just seven months ago, Jeff was worth $100 billion. Three years ago, in July 2015, Jeff was worth “just” $50 billion.

At $170 billion, Jeff actually doesn’t move too much on our list of the richest human beings of all time (inflation adjusted). Jeff is currently the 12th richest human being of all time. He needs around $9 billion to top Alan Rufus , the 11th century British land baron. He needs $19 billion to top Henry Ford and break into the top 10.
On the flip side, should we feel cautious or nervous that the stock market is trading at all-time highs after a winning streak that has lasted a decade at this point? We have two companies with $1 trillion market caps and a few more within striking distance. We haven’t had a crash in a decade when historically we’ve averaged a crash every seven years… How do you feel about the next 12 months of the stock market?
Do you think Jeff Bezos’ net worth will be more or less than it is today 12 months from now?
