Jeff Bezos, Amazon boss - John Locher / AP / SIPA

No matter how hard you look, you shouldn't find your name on this list. And it is once again Jeff Bezos who sits on the throne of the richest man on the planet, according to the ranking of the Bloomberg agency. The boss of Amazon achieves a great feat: he is the first to exceed 200 billion dollars, reaching exactly 202 billion, or about 171 billion euros.

Jeff Bezos would almost make his rivals appear barefoot: Bill Gates does not even hit the $ 125 billion and Mark Zuckerberg tops out in third place, at just $ 115 billion.

Bernard Arnault is in fifth position

The first Frenchman on this list is Bernard Arnault. The chairman and chief executive officer of the luxury group LVMH hoisted the French colors to fifth position, with a fortune estimated at more than $ 86 billion, far ahead of Francoise Bettencourt Meyers, only 12th. Rest assured for the French, these estimates fluctuate according to stock market prices, and rankings are therefore by nature likely to change from one day to another. Here's a little hope that your name will appear there one of these days.
