If 2021 proves to be a boon for the richest people in the world then 2022 is going very badly. So far this year, 2022 is proving to be a very bad year for the top 10 billionaires except Arnold, Adani and Ambani. As of 9 a.m. Friday, nearly $ 300 billion in assets had been breached from Elon Musk to Steve Woolmer.
Mukesh Ambani, Gautam Adani and Warren Buffett are the only rich people whose wealth has increased in the top-10 billionaires during this period.
