The Youngest Richest Kids in the World List 2025: The world today is witnessing a remarkable group of young individuals who have achieved billionaire status at an incredibly early age. While nearly three-quarters of the world’s billionaires are between the ages of 50 and 79, this year, 21 individuals under the age of 30 have made it to the Forbes Billionaires List. Unsurprisingly, the majority of them inherit their wealth from family businesses, with Johannes von Baumbach (aged 19), heir to Germany’s Boehringer Ingelheim, which is the world’s largest privately owned pharmaceutical company, being the world’s youngest billionaire as of 2025.
