Who Are The 17 Richest People In Advertising On The Planet?

Who Are The 17 Richest People In Advertising On The Planet?

Business Insider has published a list of the people in advertising who could buy a few islands with the amount of money they have.

BI looked at media big gun’s SEC filings (the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) including their salary, stock award, option awards etc. This list is by no means extensive. The search was limited to public companies only, as well as companies that were pure-play advertising agencies (hence no Google or Facebook).

Please note, unfortunately there is just one woman who made the list.
