Self-Made vs. Inherited Wealth

We dove into the current Forbes billionaire list to map where fortunes are earned and where they’re passed down. 🏗️💰
Globally, 67% of billionaires are self-made. Germany? Just 1 in 4 took the entrepreneurial route. Meanwhile, Russia and China top the list with 97% self-made billionaires each.
Oh, and the total wealth of all billionaires jumped 13.4% last year. Inheritance or not, it’s been a good year to be rich.
