It's been said that it's slippery at the top, but not for Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. This year marks the tenth consecutive year that Gates, 47, has been named the richest man in America.

'Gates' net worth, currently pegged at $46 billion, has sagged significantly since the peak of the technology bubble in 1999. That year Gates was worth a staggering $85 billion, almost all of it tied up in shares of Microsoft (nasdaq: MSFT - news - people ), the company he co-founded with fellow Forbes 400 member Paul Allen in 1975. Allen is the third-richest man in America, worth $22 billion.

Will anyone ever catch Gates? Not anytime soon. Despite the technology industry's continuing woes, Gates is still $10 billion richer than America's second-richest man, Warren Buffett ($36 billion), and more than twice as rich than technology rival Larry Ellison ($18 billion), who came in at number nine.
