TAPPER: We're back with today's Money Lead. I'm Jake Tapper. The list that most of us can only dream about being on, Michael Jordan is a newbie on it, arguably the best basketball player of all time is now one of the richest people in the world according to "Forbes." Jordan has a net worth of $1 billion. He can thank sales from his Nike Air Jordans, of course, but mostly from owning the Charlotte Hornets. Also on the billionaires list, Walmart heiress, Christy Walton, she is the richest woman on the list with $41 billion. Widow of Apple founder, Steve Jobs, Laureen Powell Jobs is worth $19.7 billion. And how about this for inspiration, the 31-year-old Elizabeth Holmes, America's youngest self-made billionaire, Holmes dropped out of Stanford at 19 and started a company that develops blood testing technology. She is worth $4.6 billion. Speaking of money, one of the highest paid women on television is not letting up her number one status. Judge Judy just renewed her daytime contract through the year 2020. The sharp talking quick thinking 72- year-old has been telling people off on television since 1996. Judge Judy has been the number one court show for 969 consecutive weeks. She is the highest rated show in syndication and her last contract was worth about $45 million a year, but she's not a billionaire. So the Buried Lead now, people are running for cover in parts of Chile and let me show you why. This is the Villarica volcano erupted today, in a tourist town south of Santiago. It erupted early this morning. Sure the images are incredible, but this mountain is now a danger to some 22,000 people who lived nearby. Many evacuated their homes shortly after the explosion of lava. Not only that, but there was a lightning strike from the cloud of ash. The eruption caused several rivers to rise, melted the snow along the side of the volcano. Emergency crews are watching out for possible mud slides as a result. That's it for THE LEAD. I'm Jake Tapper. I'm turning you over to Wolf Blitzer in "THE SITUATION ROOM." Thanks for watching.
