2013's Big Winners

Last year was a great one for the stock market, and the people who were best positioned to take advantage of it may have been the corporate titans who own huge blocks of their company's high-flying stock. As the Wall Street Journal pointed out yesterday, many of 2013's biggest winners were the well-known faces behind America's hottest stocks. Some of those winners:

  • Warren Buffett, of Berkshire Hathaway, made $12.7 billion in 2013 alone
  • Jeff Bezos, of Amazon.com, made $12.0 billion
  • Mark Zuckerberg, of Facebook, made $11.9 billion
  • Larry Page, of Google, made $9.0 billion
  • Sergey Brin, of Google, made $8.8 billion
  • Larry Ellison, of Oracle, made $5.5 billion
