Billionaire Warren Buffett was joined by a roll call of the world's richest people on to celebrate Forbes' 100 anniversary.
Among those on stage were billionaires Hamdi Ulukaya, CEO of Chobani; Vegas tycoon Steve Wynn, CEO of Wynn Resorts; Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, former GE boss Jack Welch; Russian entrepreneur Yuri Milner and investor Ray Dalio.
Joining the billionaires on stage was Sean 'Diddy' Combs, who's worth $820million.
