Wanna know who is the richest royalty in the world??

You will be surprised! Actually I was!


You would think that it would be Sultan of Brunei or some King from Arabsright?? They are rich in oil and with the high oil prices, they should be piling in the bucks. Infact, they probably are richer but just not reporting it!


So, the richest royalty (as reported by Forbes) goes to our neighbouring country's King - King Bhumibol Adulyadej, King of Thailand. He has an estimated fortune of 35billion!!


Forbes said - King Bhumibol, 80 and, at 62 years on the throne the world's longest-serving head of state, pushed to the top of the richest royals list by virtue a greater transparency surrounding his fortune.


No 2 - King of Abu Dhabi 23billion

No 3 - King of Saudi Arabia 21billion

No 4 - King of Brunei 20billion

No 5 - King of Dubai 18million

N0 6 - Prince of Liehtenstien (huh? where?!!) 5billion

No 7 - Sheikh of Qatar - 2billion

No 8 - King of Morrocco - 1.5billion

No 9 - King of Monaco - 1.4billion

No 10 onwards - many others.
