The Newcomer Billionaires of 2012

Bangalore: It’s not an easy task to earn a spot on Forbes Billionaires list. But few fresh faces are lucky enough to get their names into the league of 2012 World’s Billionaires. 90 new debutants have into this list, but the most noticeable is Laurene Powell Jobs, wife of Steve Jobs. Have a look at the 20 newcomers in the Forbes list this year.

Alejandro Santo Domingo
Alejandro Santo Domingo Davila is the new entrant in this billionaire list. This 35 year-old rich billionaire turned into the face of his father’s Santo Domingo Group as his 87 year old father passed away in October 2011. Being the Managing Director at Quadrant Capital Advisors, a New York-based investment advisory firm, has been groomed for many years. He owns a net worth of $9.5 billion.

Laurene Powell Jobs
Steve Jobs’ widow took over the wealth that was largely placed into living trusts near the end of his life. Laurene met Steve Jobs in 1989 after he gave a talk at Stanford University where Powell was a business school student. They married less than two years later in Yosemite; the ceremony was overseen by Jobs’ Zen Buddhist mentor, Kobun Chino Otogawa. He owns a net worth of $9 billion.
