Michael Bloomberg is worth an estimated $106 billion — but you won't find him on the Bloomberg rich list
Forbes estimates Michael Bloomberg is one of the few worth more than $100 billion. He doesn't appear on Bloomberg's rich list due to editorial policy.
His wealth has roughly tripled from $35.5 billion in 2015, making him one of only 14 people worth more than $100 billion by Forbes' reckoning. Excluding his fortune leaves a sizable hole in the Bloomberg index.
You're viewing a single thread.
Their list has always not included some of the truly richest people in the world, like for example some Saudis. It's a pretty meaningless list.
Pretty sure Forbes and Bloomberg also exclude criminals who obtained their wealth illegally
Edit: looks like Saudis are excluded for similar reasons
Fun fact. Fourbe in French a means dishonest person. A liar. A hypocrite.
I always thought Forbes looked a lot like that word.
Hey, I said illegal not unethical or immoral. Not defending anyone who is on the list lol
Except it's plural.
Wow, such nonsense. ALL billionaires obtained significant portions of their wealth illegally
As I said in another comment, illegal /= unethical or immoral. Most people on the list used shady, yet legal, practices. Few probably engaged in outright illegal acts to obtain their wealth.
