Currently the final paragraph of Section #3 Net worth and Stichting INGKA Foundation is as follows:

In March 2010, Forbes magazine estimated Kamprad's fortune at US$23 billion, making him the eleventh richest person in the world. A year later, he fell to 162nd after his lawyers produced documents proving that the foundation he established and heads in Liechtenstein owns IKEA, and that its bylaws bar him and his family from benefiting from its funds. In June 2015, Kamprad was listed as the eighth wealthiest person in the world in the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, with an estimated net worth of $58.7 billion. Forbes reported Kamprad's net worth as of March 2015 to be $3.5 billion.

The Forbes 2010 article doesn't appear to be online and the Bloomberg Billionaires Index no longer mentions Kamprad. The text needs editing and/or new citations found.

I deleted the external links Ikea's enigmatic founder's amazing and controversial life by Daniel Coughlin at https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/companies/ikeas-enigmatic-founders-amazing-and-controversial-life/ss-BBOJ4fY?ocid=spartanntp and Profile at Bloomberg Billionaires Index at https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profile/ingvar-kamprad since they no longer lead to the relevant pages.

Career vs Fascist involvement

It’s interesting that the chapter on his career is actually shorter than the chapter on his brief Fascist involvement… Wikipedia in a nutshell 193.234.100.136 (talk) 18:19, 30 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
