Are Miyan,

Pakistani kaise yahon ayenge, Jihad se koi Millioner kaise banega?

I missed one thing: Above is list of top 50 millioners.

Pakistanis basically concentrate on exporting children for camel races in the middle east or some beef and mutton exports.Pakistan has a goat based economy.Only if these exports do well we will have Pakistani Millionaires or Billionairs.Till then I feel there's no chance:D

Whatever happened to the Sultan of Brunei ?? Wasn't he like the richest person in the world a few years ago ??

[laal_langot]

I think this list considers only the working rich because there are many names that this list wouldnt include for example Saddam Hussein fortune is worth about $6B but it is not considered because he is part of the non working rich and so would be the case for the European Royal Families...Sultan of Brunei probably falls into the same category and he still is one of the richest people in the world generally speaking....

In fact recently when Daewoo the Korean group was in trouble the Sultan was asked to pay almost $114m for construction work carried out in Bandar Sri Begawan by the groups construction arm slightly ahead of scheduled payment time.So I am sure he still can manage enough pocket money for his kids.

Aksuman... on one hand you guys boast of being so much superior than Pakistanis. But in every area you compare ourselves only with Pakistan? Drag them in every topic? Shouldn't you set some higher standards for comparison, or is that expecting too much? Or you acknowledge Pakistan is not so below comparison after all?

p.s: Whats 'millioner' and 'billioner'
