Ever since I remember I've been fascinated by this man. Think it's time to read his autobiography.

What ******** after clicking through a couple of links still couldn't get to the actuall list, then got an error.

His autobiography would undoubtably be interesting - but come on this is hardly the tale of a self made man ! How many individuals out there with access to the income stream of Saudi Arabia would have performed better ? Quite a few I guess.
"His" investment strategy of getting in on established businesses and their revenue flows is not exactly innovative - KHC was not a driving force in Islamic finance - Citibank (?) been there done that - EuroDisney (has that got anything to do with Walt Disney) and so on and so forth ....
Add this to the fact that "he" sits atop the Saudi rich list and it starts to look a little suspect to (perhaps only) me.

I said fascinated not admire!
In his years as a billionaire he's yet to put a wrong foot foward. Besides he say's he's a self made billionaire? I'm simply enthralled with a man born into The M.E's finest political lineage. Everything he does is politically correct. His political connections around the globe would suggest that he's some one to watch out for. Besides he's invested big time in the media. Nothing influences people here more than the media. Unlike the west, people here blindly believe everything the media says. And the Prince controls the media. Times called him ME's Warren Buffet - he has bigger ambitions no doubt.

I like Prince Waleed but anyone who thinks he is SA's richest man is living in lala land. He is the richest AUDITABLE man in Saudi Arabia!!

This is certainly correct.

His achievement is not "becoming rich". Rather its "staying rich"....
