In 2021, a record-breaking of 660 people became billionaires globally, growing the previous year’s number by 30%. The U.S. is home to the most billionaires out of any other country, mostly concentrated within just a couple of industries: finance and investments, and technology.
Some people working in other wealthy sectors like food and drink, fashion and retail, and media and entertainment were able to grow a huge net worth, like Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos, projected to become the world’s first trillionaire by 2026.
