Mark Zuckerberg became the sixth-richest person on Earth today.
The Facebook Inc. founder saw his fortune rise $6 billion in trading Thursday after the world’s biggest social network delivered another quarter of record revenue. That gives the 31-year-old a net worth of $47.5 billion, enough to surpass the $45.9 billion holdings of brothers Charles and David Koch, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
