Pendiri Microsoft, Bill Gates, dan pemilik Berkshire Hathaway, Warren Buffet, yang hartanya “hanya” bertambah 3 miliar dollar AS harus puas berada di posis kedua dan ketiga dengan masing-masing nilai kekayaan sebesar 56 miliar dollar AS dan 50 miliar dollar AS. Yang menarik, 70 persen sumber kekayaan Gates ternyata bukan dari Microsoft, melainkan dari hasil investasi di Meksiko. Gates berinvestasi di pasar saham, perusahaan minuman ringan Femsa dan Grupo Televisa di negeri tersebut.
Posisi keempat ditempati pria Perancis sekaligus orang terkaya di Eropa, Bernard Arnault, yang mempunyai harta senilai 41 miliar dollar AS. Harta Arnault melonjak 13,5 miliar dollar AS berkat kepemilikan sahamnya di perusahaan produk-produk mewah Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy (LVMH). Di posisi kelima ada Larry Ellison, pendiri perusahaan Oracle, dengan kekayaan 39,5 miliar dollar AS. Di urutan keenam adalah Lakshmi Mittal, konglomerat baja India dengan nilai 31,1 miliar dollar AS.
Adapun Amancio Ortega dari Spanyol dengan kekayaan 31 miliar dollar AS menduduki posisi tujuh, kedelapan Eiko Batista dari Brasil (30 miliar dollar AS), kesembilan Mukesh Ambani dari India (27 miliar dollar AS), dan di posisi 10 ditempati pemilik ritel raksasa Walmart Keluarga Christy Walton dengan harta 26,5 miliar dollar AS. Pada tahun ke-25 ini, Billionaires List memecahkan dua rekor, yakni dari segi jumlah miliarder yang terdaftar dengan 1.219 orang dan nilai kekayaan yang mencapai 4,5 triliun dollar AS.
