What would you do if you were born a millionaire and your only worries were what color Lambo you wanted for your birthday? Let’s dive into the lives of the young and the rich.

Mark Zuckerberg-Do I even have to get into who’s number 1 on any youngest billionaires list? The guy’s got close to $40 fucking billion out of Facebook, so there is no comparison even to his other young billionaire competitors -
3.
Dustin Moskovitz-Facebook billionaire coming through! Another one of the five co-founders, Dustin Moskovitz, has a net worth of $8.8 billion, earning him the title of the youngest self-made billionaire. He only turned 31 this year, but if you think that’s something big to do at his age, well, he doesn’t. After Facebook, he’s still on a roll with another company he founded, Asana. Let’s see how this one works out. -

Yang Huiyan-This young heiress is the majority shareholder in the booming real-estate company created by her father, Country Garden Group. At 34, her net worth is $8.2 billion, making her the richest woman in Asia. She is, however, only the fifth richest person in China. -
5.
Scott Duncan-This 31-year-old American billionaire inherited the Duncan fortune, the Enterprise Products pipeline company started by his father. And if you think just having a worth of $7 billion just handed to you is not fair, listen to this: he wasn’t even supposed to be a single heir, or the oldest brother. There are three older sisters in the family. I do wonder whether all decided to turn their nose on the business or his daddy just doesn’t like girls. -
6.
Eduardo Saverin-I know that when people think of young billionaires, Mark Zuckerberg is bound to come to mind, but he is not the only one who became famous by Facebook. This 33-year-old is one of its co-founders, though he actually had to sue Zuckerberg for credit. He now only has 0.4% of the shares, and that’s still enough to give him a net worth of about $5 billion. Good God. -
7.
Elizabeth Holmes-You know when you get to drop out of Stanford? Well, apparently, if what you learn in the first year of chemical engineering is enough to help you start the most profitable and innovative blood test company in existence, you’re good to teach your professors some lessons instead of the other way around. The Theranos CEO is now worth $4.6 billion, and while we have some who are above that on this list, let’s consider that she started her business at 19. That’s not a small thing even in Forbes terms. -
8.
Marie Besnier-Beauvalot...Miss Marie is a rich heiress –and a French one at that- and at 35, she and her two brothers own the diary company started by their grandfather, Lactalis, making her worth $2.5 billion. Ladies, what would you do with a billion -
9.
Yoshikazu Tanaka-At 38, he might be a bit old for this list, but come on, $1.9 billion by 38 is impressive. After all 40 is the new 30. He set up a networking service called GREE, which earned him the title of Asia’s Youngest Self-Made Millionaire, and second youngest worldwide, after you-know-who. GREE is just starting to really go worldwide, so we’ll wait a bit to see this billionaire’s work in action -
10.
Albert von Thurn und Taxis-This guy inherited a fortune of $1.6 billion. Albert Maria Lamoral Miguel Johannes Gabriel, 12th Prince of Thurn and Taxis. This guy’s a 32-year-old prince, unmarried, playboy, racecar driver . He’s gotta be drowning in puntang. -
11.
Bobby Murphy & Evan Spiegel-Have you heard of Snapchat? Of course you have. And now you’ve heard of its founders too. These guys may only be 25 and 27, but they’re also worth $1.5 billion each for their invention. LOL @ Student loans?
