What is the necessicity to count and compare the top richest persons, where there is so many uncountable number of people suffering in poverty and illiteracy? These people have become rich only by promoting poverty in the society by their commercial super-brains! Only eradication of povety and illiteracy must the aim of all people, at whatever higher socio-economic position they may have! Thanks and have a good day!

Then what is the necessity of entertainment in one's life..... Why the cricketers will be paid more and more?????? IPL cricketers are one of the highest paid players........ Why the film stars are paid such amts....... But, still we r enjoying movies and cricket..... Can we stopped enjoying these things?? All knows these peoples are becoming rich by SUCKING us or the poor peoples...... They are making more and more......and we are supporting them continuously...... If we don't stop supporting they will make more......till foreigners were sucking us,the INDIANS to become the richest.......Bill gates is the richest today...... He is still getting the max portion of his profit from INDIA......... Today,A NEW INDIA IS EMERGING........FEW Indians have made BILLIONS....... So, whats wrong?? Let the foreigners suck us more so that they can have more & more billions!!!! Hard to believe...but,We also are supporting poverty.........

Look In india what i feel is thee is lot more inequality among the people. There are few who are so much rich and others are very poor. It does not make any meaning to me.

Yes... good to see them there as well... Just for the records, Mukesh actually leapfrogged L. Mittal from last year. But brother Anil is languishing some where below at 40th odd position. Almost all the top-50 lost on their net worth owing to the global recession, but people in sunshine industries lost more than the ones in traditional industries... Which explains why Anil slipped so far down while brother Mukesh actually climbed up... Cheers! Ram

Great ain't it. But don't forget that India has loose as it lost the tag of being the country in Asia with highest no. of billionaires. Then Anil Ambani has lost more money than anyone world over, interestingly in the last year's list he has added more money besides his name than anyone in the world, a sad (is it?) part of life. Any way cheers for India and hope when this financial recession subsided India emerges as a true lion in the international affairs.
