Muammar Gaddafi – peak net worth: $280 billion (£211bn)
In 2011, Libyan officials estimated that deposed leader Colonel Gaddafi had hidden away a fortune of $200 billion in secret bank accounts, shady investments and dubious real estate deals during his dictatorship, stolen from the country's massive oil revenues.
Adjusted for inflation, that's the equivalent of around $280 billion (£211bn) today.
