Doesn’t That level of power automatically makes someone:

Publicly known (at least in business, government, media circles) Documented online, in filings, press, contracts, etc. Recognizable to anyone

Especially if the CEO is a person of color who came from a middle class background

Wouldn’t they be automatically famous?

    Have a look at the list. Most won’t even get through the top 10 before finding a guy that just quietly enjoys having unfathomable wealth, and that you’ve never heard of.

    A few use their wealth for (attempted) good or evil, and they tend to get noticed more. You might know Peter Thiel, but he’s all the way down at like 170th or something.

    Nope, plenty of them don’t have a public face. You can find out who they are but they aren’t trying to make that happen
