I think this article is worth keeping.

Last I checked, most of Turkey was in Asia


The Netherlands has atleast one billionaire aswell, does the name Eric Laurant ring a bell?

So are all these numbers for dollar billionaries or for the home currency of each country? Pointysticks 13:57, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Misleading Title

Just browsing and came across this.

It's not a list of billionaires by nationality, it's a list of countries by the number of billionaires.Staples 10:07, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree. The title of the article should be changed. DJDavis92 03:53, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, you're not wrong. It really needs to have the names and net worth of the individuals listed. Yay unto the Chicken 10:05, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Why is India listed in the Europe section?

[edit] About Figures

Could somebody cite any sources about these countries:

  • Kosovo (not a country)
  • Serbia
  • Albania
  • Nepal
  • Ethiopia
  • Philippines
  • New Zealand

Ethiopia's billionaire (I added Ethiopia) is an Ethiopian-born citizen of Saudi Arabia (so he might be on the list twice) named Mohammed Al Amoudi. — ዮም | (Yom) | Talk • contribs • Ethiopia 01:12, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] currency?

Is it in USD or pound or YTL or what? It says so in the "notes" but it's, well, the article's morst important infomation (change anything else and the articel is worth something, change this and it's nothing worth). It could even be (nonsens) in 100 different currecies (home currency). And add a note, that in amny coutries of the world anyone's property is something private. So almost all these numbers will be estimations (who knows, perhaps I owe 7 billions, but I've never told anyone). so long de:User:Thire, aka --85.103.171.19 23:06, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merger of Articles

I do not think that the articles should be merged. I believe the topics are distinct.

[edit] Listing countries "by the number of billionaires"

The countries are listed alphabetically and not by the number of billionaires they have. I will try correct this error. --Incman|वार्ता 20:33, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kosova

The two billionaires of Kosova are ethnic Albanians Bexhet Pacolli & the other person that i cant remember his name so their cant be consider as Serbian billionaires but Albanians —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Gon4z (talk • contribs) 17:28, 23 March 2007 (UTC).

Yeah, but technically their are nationals of the republic of Serbia. --Incman|वार्ता 21:32, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
