Скачать или смотреть Bloomberg index puts Bezos fortune at just over $100B

(25 Nov 2017) Black Friday has boosted the net worth of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos to just over 100 billion US dollars, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
His fortune increased by 2.4 billion to 100.3 billion dollars, boosted by positive Black Friday trade predictions, which pushed up Amazon shares.
The index measured a rise of 32.6 billion US dollars in Bezos' overall net worth this past year.
That's the largest increase for any of the 500 richest people ranked in the daily index.
It's the first time since 1999 that a billionaire on the Bloomberg index amassed 100 billion dollars.
Previously, it was Microsoft founder Bill Gates whose fortune briefly surpassed the 12-figure milestone.
Bezos is only worth 100 billion according to the Bloomberg index, however.
The other index measuring the world's richest people, the Forbes 400, put the Amazon founder at only 99.6 billion dollars on Friday.
