Do you have any idea how much Bill Gates pays in taxes? He has paid tens of billions of dollars.
The guy from Amazon I don't know much about sorry. Maybe he is an exception.

Price of Offshore: Revisited (2012–2014)
A notable study on the financial effect was Price of Offshore: Revisited in 2012–2014, by former McKinsey & Company chief economist James S. Henry.[121][122][123] Henry did the study for the Tax Justice Network (TJN), and as part of his analysis, chronicled the history of past financial estimates by various organisations.[118][31]
Henry used mainly global banking data from various regulatory sources to estimate that:[122][123]
USD 21 to 32 trillion of global assets (over 20% of global wealth) "has been invested virtually tax-free [..] in more than 80 offshore secrecy jurisdictions";[124]
USD 190 to 255 billion in annual tax revenues are lost due to i. above;
USD 7.3 to 9.3 trillion is represented by individuals from a subset of 139 "low to middle income" countries for which data is available;
These figures only include "financial assets" and do not include assets such as Real Estate, precious metals etc.
