The top 10 richest families in the world know how much their total wealth is

 

The Ambani family of India is also among the top 10 families in the world. Here in the list of top 10, there are two families who are from Germany. So let's look at the list of the top 10 richest families in the world.

 

The global economy has seen a huge decline since March because somewhere, the coronavirus has slowed the markets. But, when you are among the richest families in the world, then all these things have very little effect on you. For example, since January, Mukesh Ambani has jumped nine places on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. By August 18, the Indian billionaire had fallen from fourth place to sixth place on the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires list.


Today, we are going to tell you the names of 10 such families who appear in the list of top 10 richest families in the world.


1. The Walton Family


Walmart is the largest retail chain in the world. According to Bloomberg, their sales in more than 11,000 stores worldwide are $ 524 billion, or 39 lakh crores. The Walton family has been investing money for three generations now and still holds about half of the stake in the company. This is the reason that they occupy the top position among the world's wealthiest families. Currently, Stuart Walton is a director of the company.
