Lőrinc Mészáros has made a big leap forward with his wealth on a global level, many well-known stars can hide in shame

Although Trump still has twice as much, Mészáros's fortune, which has swelled to $3.3 billion, is more than, say, Ronaldo, Mick Jagger, and Madonna could amass together.

At least, if we cross the Hungarian border, we find people in the region who are much richer than them. But it is rare to see growth on such a scale.

The list of the 50 richest Hungarians has <a href="https://forbes.hu/extra/50-leggazdagabb-magyar-2024-25/">been published in Forbes magazine</a>. Lőrinc Mészáros's wealth is over one trillion forints, István Tiborcz doubled - they write. A new actor debuted with a hundred billion, and there was one who returned after four years of skipping. 8.5 trillion forints will be concentrated in the hands of the fifty richest Hungarians in 2024.
