The World's Billionaires

[loyolabenson]

I found this on their site...



Here is the 1 Rothschild listed...

Nathaniel Rothschild - Forbes

There is also 1 Rockefeller here...

David Rockefeller, Sr. - Forbes

I meant to say at the TOP of the list, not at the bottom.

Amancio Ortega of Spanish retailer Zara moves up to No. 3 for the first time. He is the year’s biggest gainer, adding $19.5 billion to his fortune in one year. He moves ahead of Warren Buffett, despite the fact that the U.S. investing legend added $9.5 billion to his fortune. This is the first year since 2000 that Buffett has not been among the top 3. The year’s biggest loser is Brazilian Eike Batista, whose fortune dropped by $19.4 billion, or equivalent to about $50 million a day. His rank falls from no. 7 to no. 100 in the world.

Those are just crazy numbers. Think, I added a couple of dollars to my fortune over the last year.

This list is never accurate because a lot of info about people's wealth is never released publicly. I know of at least one multi billionaire, and his family from Indonesia, who are not on this list. I'm sure there are many others like him, plus tons of erroneous reporting on people's true wealth, not just the reported numbers.

Yep, and it's easier to track people's wealth in western countries than it is in 3rd and 2nd world ones. I know there are a lot of rich motherfuckers in the oily Middle East and corrupt Africa that should be at least in the top 50 and are nowhere to be found.
