Let’s take a wild ride through time and money — comparing the titans of industry from 1900-1950 to today’s tech and luxury giants of 2025.
Back in the early 20th century, power wore a top hat and wielded steel, oil, and railroads:
• John D. Rockefeller ruled with oil and a jaw-dropping \$1.4 billion (which would be over \$400B today adjusted for inflation!)
• Andrew Carnegie forged his steel empire with \$475 million
• Henry Ford revolutionized the road with \$310 million
• J.P. Morgan controlled Wall Street with \$200 million
Fast forward to 2025 — the era of rockets, algorithms, and luxury:
• Elon Musk is driving the future (and flying to Mars) with \$187 billion
• Bernard Arnault is living the high life of haute couture at \$185 billion
• Jeff Bezos is still shipping wealth globally with \$168 billion
• Larry Ellison is coding his way to the top with \$144 billion
From steam engines to space engines, from railroads to retail algorithms — the game may have changed, but the empire-building ambition is eternal. Who will be on this list in 2050? Stay tuned... 🌍
