It's known that the leaders of the various nations around the world don't
Necessarily make the most amount of money in that nation however
There are several political leaders who are worth a lot of money, so let's get into this right now
Hi guys. I'm Leroy Kenton and welcome to another episode of
FTD facts now
I got a say in doing this video and like it really really shocked me especially the political leader in the number one spot
so I'm sharing the top 5 richest politicians and
let's begin now with number 5 and that is Sonia Gandhi at 2 billion dollars now the
71 year old Indian
Politician is wealthy by all accounts and she's currently ranked number 9 in Forbes list of the world's most powerful women
She's originally of Italian descent but became an Indian citizen after having married the late Indian Prime Minister
Rajiv Gandhi
Now she is the president of the Congress party, but despite her immense power
She has never shown
Interest in running for the prime minister position her 2 billion dollar net worth makes her richer than the Queen of England
so containing this video at number 4 we have Khalifa bin Zayed Al Dayan at
$15,000,000,000 Sheikh Khalifa as he's also known as is the current president of the
United Arab Emirates as well as the ruler of Abu Dhabi the AL Nayan family
Holdings are said to be worth over a hundred and fifty billion dollars
And he's a very popular guy among his people because his rule has seen a very positive influence on
Religion as well as he's also introduced certain democratic processes in the federal National Council
yeah, this guy his whole
Family is loaded ok so now in the number three spot
We have hassan al bull kai at twenty billion dollars, so this guy right here hassan al ball kai
He's the ruler of brunei and he's one of the only two Sultan's in the entire world the other one being Sultan Qaboos bin
Saeed Oh maaan now this guy has grown his wealth since coming to power in
1967 he even amended the Constitution in his country to make himself
Infallible meaning that he could never be made wrong and just a fun fact his full name is
Haji Hassan Abu Chi Moo he's Aden what do Allah try saying that just one time fast?
Talk about a tongue-twister of a name moving on to a much easier name to pronounce at the number 2 spot
We have Michael Bloomberg at forty seven point eight billion dollars
Ranking him as the eighth richest person in the entire United States and the 10th richest person in the whole world
Michael Bloomberg is the founder and CEO of the Bloomberg?
Corporation, and he was the mayor of New York City in the United States for 12 years until
2016 although he's no longer the mayor of New York City he currently still remains in politics
And he's so rich that at one time he actually hired an entire audience for one of his rallies
When you can't get support just pay the people and they'll back you up
Ok so you guys ready for number one like this one. Just like blew my mind. I'm like
How well a number one spot comes Vladimir Putin had?
75 billion dollars now Putin first came to power in
1999 as the prime minister of Russia
But he quickly switched to being the president in 2000 until
2008 then he switched back to being Prime Minister in 2008 until 2012 and then he switched back to being president after
2012 I guess he likes the sound of
President more than he does Prime Minister now to many his career path has been pretty shady at best given his
background and especially the annexation of part of Ukraine
But then again the Russian household income has increased by
2.5 times and the country's economy has grown for eight straight
years and newer estimates say that Hooten could be worth as much as
200 billion dollars, which would make him the richest man in the world
so although many people
Disagree with Putin's policies. There's no doubt that yeah Russia's income and economy has steadily been
Increasing so there you have it. Those are the five richest politicians in the entire world and
