Billionaires
The ten-figure club — and the hard roads that led there.
7 profiles, published in one list. Every profile is fact-checked against its sources, and every source opens inside the magazine.
Seven names, one shared threshold: a fortune counted in ten figures. But this list is not really about the number — it is about the roads that led there, which were, as the standfirst says, hard ones.
The seven include Strive Masiyiwa and Adebayo Ogunlesi, builders whose work spans continents, alongside Ken Langone and Tom Gores. Each profile traces how the fortune was actually made — the companies built, the deals struck, the long years before anyone was counting.
Read together, the profiles make a single point: there is no one road into this club. What the seven share is not a starting point but a standard — businesses of real scale, built to last, and documented here with every source linked.
