Amancio Ortega gained more wealth than anyone else this year, making $22.2 billion.

The notoriously private 76-year-old co-founded Zara with his then-wife Rosalia in 1975. The retailer , which has 1,500 stores in 70 countries, is dominating Europe and expanding in Asia.

Ortega rarely gives interviews to the press. His net worth is estimated at $57.5 billion.

Despite Ortega's private nature, some details about his life have emerged. He wears the same thing to work everyday and dines in the company cafeteria.

But Ortega does occasionally enjoy his vast fortune and indulge in luxuries.
