RICH PEOPLE

JOYPEACE

The richest man in the world is Bill Gates, of Microsoft, who is worth $76 billion! The Sultan of Brunei—a small country on the island of Borneo—is next. One of the most interesting things about some of these rich people is their odd behavior. ***One built a house costing $93 million dollars. ***One super-wealthy man from Hong Kong travels only in his own Boeing 747s—two of them, one for himself and the other for his staff. ***One woman gave an extravagant party—for her two pet camels, both of which were allowed to run around her entire house. ***One man built a house with 114 bedrooms and 132 bathrooms for himself and his wife. ***One couple flew 200 of their friends over from the US to Italy for an evening party. Interestingly, most of the very wealthy give little to charitable causes, though there are some exceptions.
