MODERATORS
Those "richest people" lists are based on publicly known wealth, which is almost exclusively public stocks. There is a lot of dark money out there.
Almost all from non-Western countries, though. Putin isn't on the list and he has a house that's worth a billion, just on it's own. In the West, it's hard to make a billion dollars without leaving a very traceable footprint.
Oh yes, I'm aware. I'm sure I can't begin to fathom.
