MANSA MUSA Mansa Musa was the ruler of the Mali Empire who was spectacularly rich: In his time, he was estimated to have a worth of $400 billion in today’s currency. This makes him the richest man in history to ever walk the Earth, making Bill Gates’ $80 billion worth today seem paltry in comparison! Mansa simply means, “King”, and “Musa” means Moses in Arabic. But just from his incredibly wealth, you can Mansa Musa was far from an ordinary king. Photo by: @brestonkenya Styling: @supermodelvee
