Here are the Richest People In The World according to Forbes Magazine.

Each photo tells the persons name and their ranking number.

Also, in the lower right hand corner there is a blue arrow with the word "open" beside it. Click on the blue arrow and you can read about each of the Worlds Richest People.

You should issue a warning, damaging dark energy to people with energy recognition, let alone the idea of the photograph being a gateway. Not joking either. These guys possess some serious jaki.

You can find me on that list as well.

I'm ranked #3,234,765,657 on that list...and working my way down!

/sarcasm off

To the point:

I wouldn't want to be at the top of that list right now.

4 of the top 20 people are Walton's from Walmart. Not sure why it is divided up so much, I am sure there is a reason. But if you add up those 4 from Walmart they easily shoot to the top of this list by quite a bit. Interesting but not surprising Walmart has created the wealthiest family in the world, and in reality the wealthiest corporation when looking at the numbers.

Ouch, that's gotta hurt big BG pretty badly, just kidding. I doubt he gives a damn about his worldwide ranking of wealth.

Thank you! It is interesting how many people from India are on that list and not China.

The Walton family (Wal-Mart) have tons and tons of money they must be the richiest listed and known family in the world, there was like five or six of them over $15 billion.

Also, I would have thought there would be a lot more Brits on that list considering 1 pound is equal to 1.4 dollars. I guess the rich Brits lost a lot of money during the recession because right before it their conversion rate was 2 pounds : 1 dollars. Either that or the queen is still jacking it, but I don't remember seeing her in the top 50 either.

This makes me sick.

Seeing as how I like to be rational and civil about these types of things, but honestly, I can't help it. Looking at the list, and I only looked at the first 100, don't even know if there are more, it just sickens me to think about it.

These people, these 100 people, or maybe even less, hold more wealth than the combined remaining 6,830,869,100 people living on this planet.

Think about that.

How does that make you feel?

Do you think that this is how the world should work?





I remember as a child thinking and dreaming about how wealthy I wanted to be one day, but now I couldn't even stand the thought. How they can live with themselves knowing that because of their greed others are suffering, and do nothing about it, is beyond me - and is beyond humanity in general.

Also notice the gold trader and miner was this year's biggest gainer, with $19.5 billion added. He only had $6.5 billion at the start of last year. Pretty big gain, I guess he is in the right business at the right time...

Is it just me or most of them don't look happy or positive in any manner possible?

One thing I have learned over the years is that these lists are a joke. They are a mask for the true elite, the banking cabal. The personal wealth of the Rothschild family alone is this combined list 5 times over. So in essence there are more Brits on the 'real' list. We don't even know who exactly owns the fed but there wealth makes these people look like paupers. Don't be fooled.

I don't think many are being fooled by that. Take this list for what it is...a list of publicly rich people and what they are supposedly worth. Sourced by Forbes...

I was just about to write the exact same thing. I guess it doesn't count if you can literally print your own money. Forbes just decided that they are out of the rat race, or they aren't allowed to put them in their list. They lead everyone else, even the top 100 wealthiest people, although I'm sure there are other bankers that have more money than all of these corporate figureheads.

I don't have a problem with it. I'm sure opinions differ on this, but if they (or their family) worked hard for their money, they saw opportunities and took them, were wise with what they had, etc., why should they not have what they made financially?

Sure, some might have been luck, or some (and again opinions differ) might have gained at the disadvantage of others, but many on that list were damn hard workers with brilliant ideas; some, like Bill Gates and Li Ka-Shing off the top of my head, have been very generous with donations and charities. They shouldn't be criticized simply for being rich.

The Rothschild Family is the Richest family in the world with literally Trillions of Dollars.



Although figures pertaining to the wealth of the Rothschild family have never been publicly available, records of their finances are not available or preserved, and it is a family policy to never reveal the size of their fortune, it is estimated that at its height, during the mid-19th century, the family's assets would, in today's terms, be counted in trillions (US$). Throughout the 19th century, they privately controlled by far the largest fortune in the world.[6] Not even John D. Rockefeller, the richest American in history, managed to come close to rivalling the scale of the Rothschilds' wealth.


They control more than 80% of the entire world's wealth.

In essence, they ARE the ones who will be in control of the New World Order.

The GODS of MONEY.

Don't forget the Napoleonic wars where financed by the Rothschild as well. They go way back, WAY BACK...

Compared to the Disney's Rothschilds, Rockerfellers all listed are dirt poor.

Ever notice why these groups don't admit to their holdings or report their fortunes?

I agree with everyone who thinks that this list is a joke. More than that i strongly believe that this profile is representative , more or less , for most billionaires on the list : Joaquin Guzman Loera aka El Chapo
