Aliko Dangote Banks $9.2 Billion in 2013

By Stella WaAfrika

2013 as the year of billionaires...... According to Bloomberg the richest man in Africa, Aliko Dangote smiled all the way to the bank in 2013 alone with a whooping in $9.2 Billion raising his fortune to $30 billion (speak of stinking wealthy!).

The list was released earlier today and Bill Gates holds the number one position with a jaw dropping $ 78.5 billion.

The billionaire is the founder of the Dangote Group and ranks as the 30th richest person in the world.

When combined, the aggregate net worth of all the billionaires is $3.7 Trillion. What a brilliant way to kick off their 2014?! 

How does one live with this much wealth?! I also want!
