1. Amado Carrillo Fuentes (around $25 billion)

Hans Gruber lookalike and cocaine baron Amado Fuentes was practically a real life James Bond villain.

He had the whole package: a vast, drug-based Mexican empire; incredible hardware (including a fleet of 727 jets to transport his product); he even had plastic surgery to alter his appearance.

At the time of his death from medical complications, his net worth was estimated to be around $25 billion, which would make him the richest criminal of all time on record.

That may be quite an accomplishment, but it’s not exactly a career that is going to earn you much respect — well maybe among other drug barons.
