Richest Men Of All Time
Posted by George on October 26th, 2005

These are the top 10 richest men of all time. These fortune are base on 2001’s US Dollars (some figures are approximate as they take into consideration inflation, GDP growth, currency exchange rates, and fluctuations in share prices).

  1. John D. Rockefeller (1839-1937) — $200 billion
  2. Andrew Carnegie (1835-1919) — $110 billion
  3. Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794-1877) — $100 billion
  4. John Jacob Astor (1763-1848) — $85 billion
  5. William Gates III — $60 billion
  6. Lawrence J. Ellison — $55 billion
  7. King Fahd Bin Abdul Aziz Alsaud — $30 billion
  8. Warren Buffett — $28 billion
  9. Paul Allen — $25 billion
  10. Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan — $ 23 billion

$200 billion, now that’s a lot of smackers. I thought Andrew Carnegie was the richest men in the world, boy was I wrong. It’s only time before a women will make this exclusive list of richest.

George Clooney Contemplate Suicide

George ClooneyGeorge Clooney has disclosed that he wanted to kill himself after having a rough year, all started when he suffered a brain injury on the set of his film Syriana. And if that wasn’t bad enough his grandmother, brother-in-law and dog all passed away within months from each other.

He told America’s National Public Radio in Los Angeles:

There was this scene where I was taped to a chair and getting beaten up and we did quite a few takes. The chair was kicked over and I hit my head.

I tore my dura, which is the wrap around my spine which holds in spinal fluid. But it’s not my back, it’s my brain. I basically bruised my brain. It’s bouncing around my head because it’s not supported by the spinal fluid.

It’s probably the worst year personally I have ever had. My brother-in-law died of a heart attack aged 45; my grandma fell, broke her hip and died this summer. And my dog got attacked by a rattlesnake and killed.

This goes to show you stars are just like the rest of us non famous people. They need to start a service that help famous people deal with everyday stress.

Celine DionCeline Dion future 2nd son is frozen as I write this. She told a French magazine she plans to have a 2nd child with her husband Rene Angelil after she completes her contract with Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

“I’m approaching 40 years old, and I have to tend to that,” Dion said. “This frozen embryo that is in New York is my child waiting to be brought to life.”

Until then Celine’s son will stay locked up in a freezer waiting to be thaw.
