Forget Elon. Forget Bezos. The wealthiest human to ever walk the Earth lived 700 years ago—and his fortune was so massive, it collapsed economies. 🌍💰

In this video, we unravel the legendary tale of Mansa Musa, the golden emperor of Mali. From controlling half of the world’s gold supply to a 60,000-person pilgrimage that shook Cairo’s economy, Musa’s story will blow your mind.

✨ Dive into:

The rise of the Mali Empire and Musa’s golden empire

His jaw-dropping pilgrimage to Mecca with camels carrying literal tons of gold

Real wealth comparisons: Musk vs. Musa (spoiler: it's not even close)
