‘We follow the same procedures used to calculate our list of the world’s billionaires: looking at past earnings, valuing current holdings, leafing through financial documents and talking to analysts, attorneys, managers, other industry players and even some of the moguls themselves to find the details’.
This year, Sean Combs ‘P. Diddy’ tops the list with $820 million. He’s closely followed by Jay Z with $810 million while Dr Dre comes in 3rd with $740 million.
