Ambani’s wealth is increasing at the rate of 28% per year, he has got varied business interests in petrochemicals, retail, and telecommunication sectors.

Michael Dell, the founder and CEO of Dell Technology has managed to survive the challenges that have come with the changes in the world PC and enterprise technology market. Dell’s increase in wealth by 31% per year and his journey towards becoming a potential trillionaire is evidence of the value of flexibility in the technology industry as well as the advantages of buying out a public company before making it public again.

10. Steve Ballmer (Predicted: 2034)

The last person we can hope to become a trillionaire is the ex-CEO of Microsoft, Steve Ballmer. Currently the owner of the LA Clippers, Ballmer’s net worth has been rising at 26% per year, mainly due to his Microsoft stock. His presence proves that investment in new economy technology firms at the early stages of their development can yield huge returns in the future even if the investor has retired from active management of the business.
