9. Mark Zuckerberg- Net worth: $71 Billion

Mark Zuckerberg makes it into the list as the youngest billionaire with first-generation wealth. Just like Bill Gates, he is a Harvard dropout who went on to co-find Facebook, the biggest social networking company. A net worth of about $71 billion is mostly tied to his holdings in Facebook, Inc. (NASDAQ:FB).

He has since diversified his holdings with the acquisitions of WhatsApp and Instagram. The billionaire has also contributed towards charitable causes such as solar-powered drones for delivering free internet services.
