5 youngest billionaires in the world for 2021, without inheriting wealth from relatives

Making big money is a special science. And future billionaires comprehend it at different times, someone becomes the owner of an amount with nine zeros at the age of 25, and someone earns their first billion only at 60.

Most young billionaires receive this status through their relatives and inheritance, but there are also those who start their own companies at a young age, for example when they were a student, this was done by Mark Zuckerberg, one of the founders of the social network Facebook.
