Xiled Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Stephen Lansdown's wealth estimated to still be around £1,720,000,000 (£1.72 billion). Hopefully enough for a new striker, FFP allowing. I can't find anything about Wael al-Qadi. Checked for a Jordanian version of the annual rich list but it hasn't finished being compiled because the 'it takes time'.

Olé Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Being based in the UK, Wael would qualify to appear in this "Rich List" if the money existed, a number of other foreign English football club owners do, who are based here. Perhaps this list has been poorly researched or perhaps owning 100% of a glorified pub football team plus three new gazebos from Argos doesn't amount to a particularly large sum.

The key word is ‘estimated’ wealth so it’s not difficult to estimate the value of the assets SL holds that are in the public domain. The Rich List does not include funds in bank accounts. My guess is that would probably be a nice little chunk of available cash for Maggie L to do her weekly shop down at Tesco’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine there's a single UK based millionaire/billionaire who has any desire to disclose his or her wealth! Only idiots like Donald Trump want people to know they are super rich. Ironically he appears to have over-estimaed his wealth all his life. As @Johnny Musicworks said, the word estimate in the original post is there for a reason.

wendyredredrobin Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 Not sure of the date of the rich list estimate but I suspect his wealth has significantly grown since as HL shares are now up to about £23 now. They were £1.60 when they floated on the stock exchange in 2008. Also, many people with this amount of wealth have a lot of money squirreled away in places where the Sunday times can't find it. They can probably only estimate from public records showing shareholdings share sales and property and I don't know how much detail they can obtain relating to worldwide assets, pension funds, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin_unreliant Posted May 12, 2019 Report Share Posted May 12, 2019 According to Forbes SL is worth $2.6 which is nearer £2bn. Just another guesstimate. https://www.forbes.com/profile/stephen-lansdown/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically he appears to have over-estimaed his wealth all his life. Almost certainly correct that Trump has always over estimated and bragged about his success, but he is certainly not an idiot for doing so in America. You need to remember his target audience there (investors and bankers in the old days) and voting public in the later days - both audiences LOVE success and successful people, unlike us Brits (me included) who often like to see them come unstuck...

Also remember that SL owns the company retained to supply and install a giant screen at the Memorial Ground. I doubt that the Times Rich List has factored that income into their estimate. It could add sixty or seventy pounds to his net worth (once they’ve invented a bracket capable of fixing an electronic device weighing nearly a ton, to a tent pole.
