Readwrite looked at the seven most valuable technology companies on Earth and the net worth of their leaders according to Forbes’ real-time billionaire list. And Apple CEO Tim Cook has a net worth of US$1.9 billion, according to the report.

From the Readwrite article: As the CEO of Apple since 2011, Tim Cook oversees the world’s most valuable company. While much of his wealth comes from his Apple salary and stock grants, his estimated net worth is around $1.9 billion. This makes him one of the wealthiest CEOs in tech but he comes in at a mere 1,597 on the world’s billionaire list.
