New Study Of The Richest People On The Planet

As the number of billionaires jumped 13% to 2,043 from 1,810, it was a record year for the richest people on earth. This news encourage leading Watford based outsources sales and marketing specialists, Karuna Events to launch a study into the wealthiest people on the planet.



As the 2017 Forbes rich list was revealed, it was exciting to learn that those achieving billionaire's status is on the rise. an additional 233 billionaires were added to the list, and for the first time in 31 years over 2,000 ten-figure fortunes have been recorded.

Encouragingly those improving their financial status outnumbered those who lost some or all their fortune by three to one.

Mr Bill Gates continues to lead, taking the top spot for the fourth consecutive year. Mr Gates fortune is recorded at $86 billion, continuing his rein at near the top of the richest people in the world chart for the last 18 years.

As entrepreneurship takes the spotlight again in its ability to create sustainable billionaires, Karuna Events are keen to highlight the list is becoming younger and younger as innovative business models are creating a diverse market brimming with opportunities for those looking to get ahead and secure a financially stable future.

The Forbes chart is also looking promising for female entrepreneurs, as 15 new self-made women enter the chart. As the list now includes 227 female billionaires, it is suspected that there will be an increase in inspiration and competition within the female led business world.

This collective of smoking individuals is something any person seeking to board a train at the same station must pus...

Red Nose Day

Red nose day is fast approaching, with brilliantly entertaining shows all ready hitting our screens to raise money for the event, including the so far fantastic and hilarious Bake-Off for Red nose day, which has yet to disappoint. As with every year the red noses are out on the streets, however unlike previous years this time there are a total of nine noses to collect, including a possible golden prize winning nose, and also unlike last year and to some people great irritation the noses are bagged, making it a complete gamble as to which one you'll get and making it even harder to collect them all.
