When we talk about the world's richest people, names like Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and India's Mukesh Ambani usually come to mind.
Wealthier
One name that is often overlooked in this list is Russian President Vladimir Putin. He is said to be one of the richest politicians in the world.

Vladimir Putin has amassed assets worth enough to buy out India's richest people, including Mukesh Ambani and Gautam Adani.
But Vladimir Putin's salary is just $140,000 per year. In addition, a small 800-square-foot apartment, a farm trailer, and three cars are listed in government records.
In fact, Vladimir Putin is said to be worth $200 billion. Putin’s vast wealth is reflected in his lavish possessions.
His large estate on the Black Sea is one of the most notable of these. Putin is also said to own 19 other mansions.
An administration run by thieves
The list goes on, with 700 high-end cars, 58 planes and helicopters, a private jet worth $716 million, a luxury yacht worth $700 million, and a collection of rare watches.
He has been Russia’s prime minister and president since 1999. Putin is the longest-serving leader of the Russian or Soviet state since Joseph Stalin.
Putin spent 16 years as a foreign intelligence officer with the KGB before entering politics. Putin's Russia is said to be a regime run by thieves.
While the actual value of Vladimir Putin's amassed wealth is debatable, the origins of his lavish lifestyle and reported wealth remain a mystery.
