The richest people in the world aren't on the richest people in the world list because they own entire countries. Putin is probably the richest single person in the world. Kim Jong Un is up there too.

If you can have literally anything you want within your own borders that's a lot more than having shares in some company that could lose value overnight.

Putin maybe, Kim-Jong definitely not. Just Meta's net profit (let well alone revenue) is well over NK's entire GDP. Even if he literally owned the entire country which he certainly does not, he wouldn't be nearly as wealthy as Musk or Bezos.
