Ah, to be young and rich. The average age of the world's 946 billionaires is 62, close to retirement, but a handful get to enjoy the trappings of wealth well before crow's-feet set in. Thirty-three of this year's billionaires--a mere 3%--are under the age of 40. Their combined net worth is $118 billion, giving them an average net worth of $3.6 billion, on par with their grayer counterparts. The youngest billionaire in the world is German prince Albert von Thurn und Taxis. The 23-year-old monarch first appeared briefly on the list at age 8, the year his father died, making him the youngest billionaire ever on our list.
