It was bad news for US President Donald Trump, who slipped 220 spots to 544 and must now rub along on just $3.5bn.
這份榜單對於美國總統特朗普來說是個壞消息,他排名下滑220位跌至第544位,現有資產僅爲35億美元。

Forbes said the $1bn fall in his wealth was due to the slow US property market.

The number of US billionaires on the list was 565, which Forbes attributed to the recent stock market surge since Mr Trump's November 2016 election.
上榜的美國億萬富翁數量爲565人,《福布斯》將其歸因爲2016年11月總統大選後美國股市飆升。

中國上榜的億萬富翁爲319人,排名第2,德國上榜人數爲114人,位列第3。

Trump's tumble
特朗普排名下滑

Forbes attributed the US president's slide down the list to the sluggish Manhattan property market, which is responsible for a disproportionate amount of his wealth.
《福布斯》認爲,特朗普排名下滑是因爲紐約曼哈頓房地產市場疲軟導致其身家縮水。

"Forty percent of Donald Trump's fortune is tied up in Trump Tower and eight buildings within one mile of it," Forbes said.
福布斯稱:“特朗普大廈及其附近1英里內的8棟建築佔特朗普全部身價的四成。”

The magazine also said that his wealth was hit by $66m in political spending on his successful presidential campaign, as well as $25m to settle litigation he allegedly ripped off students at Trump University.
《福布斯》還表示,特朗普爲了成功競選總統花了大約6600萬美元的政治經費,這也是他身家下滑的原因之一。同時,特朗普因爲涉嫌坑騙特朗普大學的學生而被起訴,因此花費2500萬美元達成訴訟和解。
