Li Ka-shing tops annual list of highest-paid business men
In 2022 it looked like the business man’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (December 22) that Li is the highest-paid business man in the world, pulling in an astonishing $46 million between November 2023 and November 2024, a nearly $20 million lead over his closest competition.
People With Money’s factors
In compiling this yearly list, the magazine considers factors such as upfront pay, profit participation, residuals, endorsements and advertising work.
The business man has an estimated net worth of $145 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Li Burger” chain) in Hong Kong, a Football Team (the “Chaozhou Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderli - Hong Kong), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Ka-shing) and a fashion line called “Li Ka-shing Seduction”.
The ranking is significant for many Ka-shing fans, who have been waiting for his triumphant return to the glory days for what seems like a lifetime.
