No, Mansa Musa (ca. 1280-1337), the King of Timbuku (Mali), was not the richest man in history. That was a lie made up by redditards. (www.youtube.com)

But the party he (or his kingdom/wtf) had was real. Messed up the economy for decades. He/they gave people so much gold it was basically not worth it work anymore.

Imagine you have 10M, would you accept to work for 50k a year?
