That's nowt. Wait until you seen his private 747. Talk about plush with money to burn, although as with many very rich people the more it costs the better, even though it might look a litle tacky. Have the pics at work.

Why do rich people think that gold sink, taps, bath, toilet look cool? Tacky with a capital T, if you ask me.

What happens to his homes, FIVE THOUSAND PREMIUM cars, and gold ****ters his oil runs out?

To be fair, he is supposed to be very generous to his people, as well!

I lived out in brunei for 11 years and met the guy himself. very nice and bloody big house !!
his collection of cars is awesome to say the least. when i was out there, and this was a while ago, every one of his children hada different coloured rolls and they would parade down the 1 road they had then, down the country on his birthday. quite a sight to see when you were 11...

his is really generous to his people and they enjoy the best healthcare in any country
but his is slightly fecked, because his oil reserves will only last another 10-15 years period.....whooops

You've gotta be happy with that collection of motors, especially the one-offs. I cant help thinking that its a bit of a waste, who has the time to even slightly enjoy 5000 motors?

They'd be good for bragging rights down the boozer, but i doubt he goes in for that!

As for treating his staff right, a bloke i work with used to work at a Merc dealer in London where the sultan sometimes takes his cars. He came over with 6 bodyguards one time and bought them all a £100,000 SL each, nice

One of those links suggests he is richer than Bill Gates - I didn't think he was anywhere near that level?

His palace, and the one he built for his wife have domes which are covered in gold plate-not leaf! Very impressive sight.

His people are well cared for as was stated.
