Casting aside the “No Idea” peeps seated at this infamous “rectangular table”, I will attempt to show you the enormous assessment of the wealth and assets of each of these people, and the total value at the end of it all simply out of pure curiousity.

Starting with Barack Obama, the President of the United States of America himself!

And finally… the youngest billionaire ever born at 1984 (that’s MY age!)

Mark Zuckerberg

If I just simply summed it all up into one figure, the total networth of these “knights of the round table” would be…

USD $53.2 billion

That’s just a wee bit more than no #2 richest man in the world, Bill Gates (who’s missing in this picture, hmm) – he’s worth USD 53 billion dollars.

As a comparison, this is what USD 53.2 billion dollars can do for you (source: Richest Countries in the world):

• buy up Costa Rica, which is worth $49,730,000,000 ie USD 49.7 billion dollars
• buy up two Bahrains, which is worth USD 26.7 billion dollars (and quite possibly a way to stop the worrying state of affairs there…)
• buy 17.7 billion Big Macs from McDonalds (worth $3 each)

It is amazing what this meet up might entail, so I for one am excited to find that out. The powers of the Government, Tech billionaires and some of the most powerful people combined must surely be a moment of epic proportion.

How I wish I could say the same for Malaysia… oh wait, that’s what PEMANDU is for, on somewhat a lower scale lah. Check out what they do, and do follow both @GTP_Roadmap and @ETP_Roadmap on Twitter to see constant improvement beneficial to us, the Rakyat. That’s all I care about, really
