    He is Richer Than Oprah

    Smith’s net worth is listed as $4.4 billion, surpassing Oprah Winfrey at $2.2 billion. Oprah is still the richest black woman in America. Smith is the richest black man in America, but not the world. He lags behind Mike Adenuga ($5.3 billion), the Nigerian telecom magnate, and Aliko Dangote, the cement tycoon. Dangote, who is also Nigerian, is worth an estimated $14.1 billion.
