For a long time, there has been huff about who is world’s richest man. Earlier it was Microsoft founder Bill Gates. But then news came that Amazon founder Jeff Bezos has overtaken Gates position as world’s richest man. Again, share price went down. Bill Gates again climbed to #1 throwing Jeff Bezos back to #2.
You will be shocked to know that the world’s richest man is not anyone of these – it is Russian president Vladimir Putin. According to sources, Hermitage Capital Management CEO, Bill Browder told that Putin’s net worth is $200 Billion. Whereas Bill Gates net worth is $90 billion. Jeff Bezoz’s net worth is $85 billion.
The difference of $180 billion between Putin and Gates wealth is Putin’s unofficial wealth. Browder got this verification by Senate Judiciary Committee.
Browder is completely sure about Putin’s wealth. He says that Putin was a shareholder in Gazprom, Surgutneftegas and other state-run Russian enterprises. He also says about Putin’s deal with some Russian businessmen in 1990’s.
Browder also says, “I estimate that (Putin) has accumulated $200 billion of ill-gotten gains. He keeps his money in the West and all of his money in the West is potentially exposed to asset freezes and confiscation.”
Also he states, “There are approximately 10’000 officials in Russia working for Putin who are given instructions to kill, torture, kidnap, extort money from people and seize their property.”
In conclusion he says, “According to Mr. Putin’s official asset form – a mandatory public disclosure for all Russian government officials – he earns $133,000 a year and has a modest apartment in Moscow.”
