Imagine being rich? Like, so rich that you literally don't have worry about money. It'd be fucking great.
Amancio Ortega doesn't have to imagine this, as he has now officially overtaken Bill Gates as the richest man in the world.
The Spaniard is the founder of Inditex group, the parent company of Zara and Pull&Bear, and to be honest, I'm not surprised he's the richest man alive. My girlfriend said she wanted a birthday present from Zara and I came out of the shop with my wallet empty, feeling violated.

The Daily Mail has reported that Ortega is worth $79.5billion, after his personal fortune allegedly increased by $1.7billion this week.
Bill Gates' estimated fortune is currently $78.5billion, thanks to his Microsoft empire, but he will be forced to sit in second spot when it comes to the most money on the planet. What a shame, he'll have to wipe away his tears with a tenner.
Ortega, who is now 80-year-old, is allegedly ready to hand over the control of the fashion company to his 31-year-old daughter Marta.
The rumours regarding his daughter have spread quite a bit, and if they're to be believed, she's going to be fucking rich. Filthy fucking rich.
