Is Markus a Billionnaire?

Markus is not a UK national and will not be in it.

 

Irrelevant. It is a Forbe's World rich list not UK list.

 

Reason why he probably isn't on it would be that not all wealthy people make their collective wealth known if it is tied up in many areas. Some liquid cash and some tied up in investments. It has been reported in numerous media outlets he is a billionaire worth circa £2.6 billion and also by Pardew and Cortese that he is a billionaire.

 

Examples...

Who knows - will shall see in the next few years as we rise through the leagues and 'invest' in the playing staff & facilities required to compete in those leagues. I care not at the moment where he stands in 'whatever' list, he appears to have the clubs best interest at heart and is running a professional operation - a little like all of his other business ventures.

 

Whilst we all want him to continuously 'splash the cash', should he not be in a position to do so, he has a responsibility to not jepardise the clubs position or integrity. He saved us from possible oblivion, and is now steering us on a survival course. I have confidence in the guy irrespective of how many millions, billions or zillions that he has.

Not irrelevant, the Sunday Times focus is on the U.K. so they only include the top 50 in the world. Being that you need £7.8bn to get onto that, he isn't included.

Just looking at The Times Rich List and was seeing if our man was on it.

Anyone know what his real net worth is?

 

Why have you brought the Sunday Times into it? The opening post was discussing the Forbes rich list.

 

The opening post was pretty confused actually.

If you want to be pedantic, the opening post was discussing the Times Rich List, but he linked the Forbes list.

 

Anyway, it doesn't matter. Our owner is loaded and life is good!

As has been said Markus has personal fortune circa £2.6 billion, which does not include his shares he holds in Liebherr International which is estimated to be around £3-4 billion. :)

Markus is NOT a billionaire, hes in fact Ali Dias' agent who spotted an 'opportunity' and its all going to come crashing down around our ears at any moment! (well as soon as the gas bill comes in!)

Hey, that's MY conspiracy theory...make up your own! :-)
