the world's first trillionaire?
my first blog to kick off the lunar new year is on wealth or lots and lots of it in the form of the world's first trillionaire who is known as mr kamal ashnawi.
many people probably would have heard of mr carlos slim helu, the mexican mega tycoon with an estimated worth of US$63.3 billion and acknowledged as the richest person in the world.
but who is mr kamal ashnawi?
Kamal Ashnawi, 42 years old was born in Tanjung Malim, Perak, Malaysia and is the president of sierra petroleum.
according to sources as reported by the malaysian media in a news conference, mr kamal ashnawi said his net worth was $6.4 trillion, and yes, u are reading right, it's trillions and expressed in numerical form, it is $6,400,000,000,000 which is equivalent to approx RM20 trillion ringgit.
my comments:
wow, imagine the number of digits of the wealth of this person and if true, may be accorded the title of the world's very first trillionaire.
i do not know whether there are any other trillionaires in the world but we can certainly boast of the highest number of millionaires in our tiny red dot nation.
even if u are not a millionaire yet, taking up a seven digit insurance policy* should have the effect of the creation of a large estate or if u like, leaving a huge legacy for your chosen beneficiary/ies and or adopted charities.
and an insurance policy, specifically a term policy is perhaps the most cost-effecitive solution with this end in mind.

Oh I forgot to cite where I got that quote from:

What a joke! Malaysian's GDP is only about $0.5 trillion and this guy claims he has $6.4 trillion. That's the equivalent of China's GDP, the 2nd largest economy in the world!
