How do I have 2 management accounts

How do I have 2 management accounts with full access to the main AWS account? I need 2 other accounts to have the same management permissions as the main account.

You cannot have two users if you expect to have a so-called root user [1].

However, it is possible to pass close privileges by creating an IAM user and giving it an AdministratorAccess policy and a Billing policy.

See "Tasks that require root user credentials" [2] for the difference between a root user and a root user. These are tasks that can only be performed by the root user.
