Combined Aggregate Wealth: $547.3 Billion
Take the United Kingdom’s GDP for example which was estimated at $2.497 Trillion. If you take the world’s top 10 richest people who have a combined net worth of $547.3 Billion and divide that by the Uk’s total GDP representing $2.497 Trillion dollars, you are looking at 21.9% of the UK’s total GDP that these powerful people represent if you wanted to really know how much power they posses.
