I take great satisfaction in announcing that not a nickel of the fortunes allegedly amassed by this collection of over-hyped and over-paid alpha hotels came from my pocket.

:lol:

Where the real money is. Straight from the Forbes Rich list top 10. I know these are some extreme examples but the number one guy has almost 1000 times more money than Tiger Woods.

To put that money in perspective, at a rate of 1% interest a year (and lets face it he gets more than that) he would make $1,408 A SECOND!! If he seen a grand lying in the street, it literally wouldn't be worth his time to pick it up.

1. Carlos Slim (Mexico) - $74 billion, telecommunications
2. Bill Gates (USA) - $56 billion, Microsoft (Software)
3. Warren Buffett (USA) - $50 billion, Berkshire Hathaway (Conglomorate)
4. Bernard Arnault (France) - $41 billion, LVMH (Luxury Goods)
5. Larry Ellison (USA) - $39.5 billion, Oracle Corp (Computer Technology)
6. Lakshmi Mittal (India) - $31.1 billion, steel
7. Amancio Ortega (Spain) - $31 billion, retail
8. Eike Batista (Brazil) - $30 billion, mining, oil
9. Mukesh Ambani (India) - $27 billion, petrochemicals, oil and gas
10. Christy Walton & family (USA) - $26.5 billion, Wal-Mart

After only the first two of the three Lord of the Rings films had come out:

Peter Jackson (director) - $65 million
Estate of JRR Tolkien (writer) - $120,000 from the movie royalties

Moral of that story: writers' estates shouldn't let the crusty old family lawyer do their business deals.

Cheers - C
