Seven self-made individuals under the age of 30 were named in Forbes' World's Billionaires List this year. And of those seven, four dropped out of Stanford University.

The world's youngest self-made billionaires all built their fortunes by founding startups. All but two individuals are US citizens. They are collectively worth $16.1 billion, reported Forbes.

Brazilian-born corporate credit-card startup founders Pedro Franceschi, 25, and Henrique Dubugras, 26, are the world's youngest self-made billionaires named in Forbes' list this year. The pair founded Brex in 2017 after quitting Stanford eight months into their freshman year. Franceschi and Dubugras are worth an estimated $1.5 billion each, per Forbes.
