Like so many others have rightly said, BILL GATES
His fortune did top $100Bn in 1999 for a short while, but he gives away like 1/4 of what earns all the time and is one of the world's biggest philantrops
John D Rockefella had $912M at one point in the 1930s, which, by inflation up to modern-day standards is just over $100Bn - he produced more of the USA's total income percentage than ANY other business did today [including Microsoft]

A person who is content, happy, in good health, acknowledges that one day he/she will die and leave all behind has to be amongst the richest persons in the world. Riches come in so many forms, but the most expensive form in the world is life, something that all the money in the world cannot buy; so if you are living and in good health, then you are indeed amongst the richest persons in the world!
