Bernie Ecclestone, 90, $3.5 Billion
When you own the most expensive sport in the world, then it isn’t surprising that you’d be incredibly wealthy too. Bernie Ecclestone has the controlling stake inĀ Formula One, and despite his expensive divorce to his then-wife Slavica, he still managed to be among the wealthiest people in the UK!
Bernie earns the bulk of his money from the sport, and the figure is set to rise in the foreseeable future as the former racing driver hasn’t retired from the business despite his old age. Either way, the businessman and his successive generations are likely to be financially stable for life!
