If you see here in Qatar no business group, all are salaried and billionaire start from road and like we people from offices so we get bread and butter but can not be rich.

And Qatar no business whatever people invested here loosing their money. From outside Qatar looking lucrative but reality is different.

Dear Friend,

We are not talking above 100-200 Million nor Nationalise Wealth, which can be kept secreting.

Billionaires Individual having Assest or Cash/stocks equal or more than 1 Billion $ i.e 1000 Million$ That is 3650 Million Qr. Ok

One can hide it 2 can hide it, not all..

Forbes cant miss if anyone is at Qatar..

They have listed 900 over the world..

If you find any then please write to Forbe to include..

People didnt understood why there are no Billionaires at Qatar try to find reason...

There are many good reasons for not flaunting one's wealth. No need to tell the world you're rich. What for? To gain other people's approval? Lol! No need for people who live for God's approval. Only the people closest to them will know or guess what they are financially worth. That's all that's important.

"Secretive" is not the word I would use - but rather, "private" and I think it's very prudent, to avoid them and loved ones being targeted, etc.

Indeed FS. Qataries are rather secretive. They don't want to expose their wealth. Even the Saudis and the UAE billionares that are known are the ones who have investments in publically traded concerns. Otherwise, these people are rich beyond imagination.

Qatar is not very transparent and maybe they don’t want the whole world to know their assets.
