There's a new richest person in the world, according to Forbes.
Josue Omari, a 21-year-old from the Democratic Republic of Congo, is No.
1 on the list with a net worth of $45 million.
That's more than any other person on the list, and it's a massive leap from the $11 million Omari was worth when he graduated from high school in 2013.
Omari started his own clothing brand, Pakrezi, in 2014 and has since expanded to include services and products for men, women, and children.
He also runs an Instagram account that has more than 1 million followers.
