El Chapo
Born as Joaquín Guzmán, El Chapo was one of the most famous Mexican drug lords in history. At the peak of his criminal career he produced all kinds of drugs among which cocaine, marihuana and heroin. He was worth one billion dollars, which is an insane amount of money.

Amado Carrillo Fuentes
The second Mexican cartel drug lord on this list, Amado took over the Juárez Cartel after the untimely demise of his former boss. He transported drugs through large fleets of jets and was worth $25 billion. Now the weird part: he was supposed to have his face changed so the police wouldn’t recognize him, but got killed by his bodyguards during the surgery. And somehow people believe this, I guess.
