The sad thing is, Ozzz, that even winning the biggest lottery prize in Australia wouldn't put you anywhere near that list!

Did you see the top one? $16.49 billion I wonder if he's single?

Actually I just noticed that there is only one female (that I could tell*) on that list! I wonder what that means, anyone with any ideas? Men

*there were ones that I don't know about, names like Sreekanth I can't tell.

Jillian, it means that Julia Roberts lied about her age...

Please excuse me whilst I build defences from 50% of the world's population..

This just proves that it's still a man's world. Which makes me wonder what people like Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey and Tom Cruise and John Travolta did with their millions; I've read that they each make about $30 million per film. And they can't be over 40.

And Oprah Winfrey will soon become the first black woman billionaire. But I think she's a little over 40.

Damn, this makes me feel old. Make that ancient!

Actually, John Travolta is 48, Tom Hanks is 46 and Tom Cruise turned 40 last July... I know, they look much younger!

Vinny Barberino (Travolta) is almost half a century old? Tom Hanks almost 50....Cruise 40? I must be in a time warp. Thanks for the info...I think.

How old is Bill Gates? I always think of him as being a teenybopper. What about Jacko, is he over 40 too?
