At what age gurus of technology have earned their first billion?

Information technology has allowed many personalities to earn a decent nest egg. As we wrote on this occasion, among the 50 richest people in the world (Wealth-X data) a good part is closely linked to the technology market and also to the computer. But it not for all the success came in a disruptive, and not all have found themselves overnight with large amounts of money to be reinvested. For example, if Mark Zuckerberg has collected its first billion in 23 years, Larry Ellison of Oracle had to touch the 50 years to reach the finish line.

Using an infographic which you can find in the British platform Fleximize, we gathered in the ranking below all the names in the computer industry among those cited in the study. We are talking about so-called rich "self-made", ie personalities who left essentially from scratch, or without relying on a large fortune inherited or already held in other ways. In the ranking stand out names such as Bill Gates, of Microsoft, Larry Page, Google co-founder co-founder, and even Elon Musk, who has exceeded one million in 27 years but had to wait several more years before earning his first billion dollars.

Please note that the data of the estimated net assets of each personality that we reported in the gallery refer to the latest statistics released by Forbes.
