William Henry Gates III (born October 28, 1955 in Seattle, Washington) is the co-founder, chairman, former chief software architect, and former CEO of Microsoft. Forbes magazine's The World's Billionaires list has ranked him as the richest person on earth for the last thirteen consecutive years. According to the Forbes 2006 magazine, Bill Gates's current net worth is approximately $53 billion. When family wealth is considered, his family ranks second behind the Walton family.[3][4]\n\nGates is one of the best-known entrepreneurs of the personal computer revolution. He is widely respected for his foresight and ambition.[5][6] He is also frequently criticized as having built Microsoft through unfair or unlawful business practices. Since amassing his fortune, Gates has pursued a number of philanthropic endeavors, donating large amounts of money to various charitable organizations and scientific research programs through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, founded in 2000. On June 16, 2006, Bill Gates announced that he would move to a part-time role with Microsoft (leaving day-to-day operations management) in 2008 to begin a career in philanthropy, but will remain as chairman; the announcement coincided with decisions by billionaire Warren Buffett to double the Gates Foundation, matching contributions $1.5 billion in stock per year for 20 years.

In 2005, American business and financial magazine Forbes listed Castro among the world's richest people, with an estimated net worth of $550 million, based on his economic control of state-owned companies. In 2006, Forbes magazine increased their estimate of Castro's wealth to $900 million but acknowledged in the article that the estimates for all the leaders are "more art than science" and admitted that they had based their report on assumptions.

Bill Gates' wealth totals about $70 billion. (The exact amount varies with the stock market.)\n\nThe President is probably not a BILLIONaire, but he certainly has MILLIONS of dollars.\n\nBut you should understand that he had millions of dollars BEFORE becoming President of the US. His presidential salary is not large enough to have had a big effect on his net worth.

Bill Gates is worth over 50 Billion.  I think there was a time when Ingvar Kamprad from Sweeden may have been worth more back when America's economy tanked after 911, but Gates is worth more now.
