List of Black Billionaires (In Alphabetical Order)

“The big secret in life is that there is no big secret. Whatever your goal, you can get there if you’re willing to work.” – Oprah Winfrey 

Most of the billionaires that we think of tend to be in the news constantly. Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett (just to name a few). But there are a select few that tend to be overlooked. Today, I wanted to have a focus on black billionaires. There may only be a handful of them (that we know of), but it is important for black kids and young adults to see that they are represented amongst those who are affluent.

Here is a list of black billionaires in alphabetical order. Of course, there may be some that I am missing, but don’t be afraid to let me know!
