There are more Gen-Z billionaires than ever before.
A record 35 people managed to hit ten digits before age 30 on the latest
#ForbesBillionaires list. That’s only 1% of the planet’s 3,428 billionaires—but up 0.4% from 2025.
They got wealthy in everything from drugstores and plumbing supplies to prediction markets and AI vibe coding. While most were handed their fortunes, a record 12 are self-made.
