Sultan of Brunei
The Sultan of Brunei, (also known as Hassanai Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah) has an estimated net worth of $20 billion, and rightly so. Born on July 15, 1946, in Brunei Town, the Sultan was already the crown prince by 1961, and became sultan in October of 1967. Incidentally, he also has many honorary doctorates from universities, including the National University of Singapore, and the University of Oxford, England, UK. As Sultan, he has complete and totally authority. As if that wasn't satisfying enough, he is the Prime Minister of Brunei as well.
Apart from essentially running Brunei, Bolkiah makes time to focus on his collection of automobiles. It has been reported that Bolkiah owns anywhere from at least 3,000-6,000 cars. He prefers unique cars to the run of the mill, and is constantly looking for something new. Bolkiah also has a Boeing 747 for his own use, as well as a theme park called Jerudong Park. The Sultan is known for some familial conflicts, particularly with his brother, Prince Jefri Bolkiah, who is known as the "Playboy Prince." The two were involved in a legal argument which was eventually settled in 2006. With his honorary titles, net worth, and astonishing power and control, Bolkiah has made his mark on history, as well as made us all jealous with his lavish and unique lifestyle.
