Farmington Hills Man Makes Forbes Magazine's List of World Billionaires

Manoj Bhargava makes his fortune producing 5-Hour Energy.

 

With an estimated net worth of $1.3 billion, a Farmington Hills man is #960 on Forbes Magazine's list of the world's billionaires – thanks to a popular energy drink. 

Manoj Bhargava, creator of the caffeine and vitamin packed 5-Hour Energy, placed #353 on the magazine's U.S. list. According to a profile published Feb. 29, the 58-year-old is something of a recluse and gave his first-ever magazine interview to Forbes. The reporter spoke with Bhargava at Antonio's, a Farmington Hills restaurant. 

Last year, the Greater Farmington Area Chamber gave Living Essentials, 5-Hour Energy's parent company, its first Entrepreneur of the Year award.
