Which of these industries will produce the worlds first trillionaire (in USD)? Here are some of the richest people by industry according to the <a href="https://www.forbes.com/billionaires/list/#version:static" target="_blank">Forbes list</a> of 2018:
 
<ul>
<li>Retail: Jeff Bezos with $112B (Amazon)</li>
<li>Software or hardware: Bill Gates with $90B (Microsoft)</li>
<li>Finance: Warren Buffet with $84B (Berkshire Hathaway)</li>
<li>Telecommunications: Carlos Slim Helu with $67.1B (America Movil)</li>
<li>Primary industries: Charles & David Koch with $60B (Koch Industries)</li>
<li>Entertainment: Sheldon Adelson with $38.5B (Casinos)</li>
<li>Space Industries: Elon Musk with $20B (SpaceX, not considering Tesla and others)</li>
<li>Healthcare: Thomas Frist, Jr. with $9.6B (HCA)</li>
</ul>
A technicality: Even if the trillion USD are reached through hyperinflation, there will still be a person to be 'first'.
