what is the number of somali millionaires?

[sahal80]

if you want to know a countrys economical health look at its millionaires.
The uk has 300,000 millionaires that are all citizens, any parson who has one million pounds and over.
what is the number of a somali personalities who own one million dollars and over?
Unfortunately we had one central bank, one central company.... There were no private companies..... So when the state collapsed every thing we have got destroyed.
during the war, somalia has witnessed the emergence of the new bourgeoisie aka xadiithii al nicma. These guys who own the airplanes, big xawaaladaha, hotels..... Are the somali business tycoons not the state whos her monthly revenues is less then one million dollar and this is why the state is looking forward to have more resources.
One of the things that would have protect the capital from destruction was if there was much private investment in it. As soon the new bourgeoisie have appeared in the cappital they created the islamic courts to protect their properties

Sahal,

There were private companies before the war and SOmali millionaires. There were the Uunlaayes, Bulaales, Jirdeehs, etc. These folks had real money and were pillars in their communities. The rich back then really helped out their tol unlike the ones of today.

Sahal80,

I actually come from Old Money that had investments in Burco, Hargeisa, Galkacyo, Mogadishu, Kismayo, Beledweyne. If the war hadn't broken out, I would be caking in the $$,

I doubt He's a real millionaire. Especially after taxes.

Somalis are known exaggerators and in the West are on Welfare. Anyone making 6 figures annually is pretty much a millionaire.

Sahal80,

Hey if the regime didn't kill my father's brothers, then there would have been no reason to go to war. Some SNETTER's parents were great friends of my father and used to make things move along smoothly with the regime.

We Somalis aint all the same..
I know plenty who have never been on welfare.. Don't put us all under the same umbrella.

Like Salah said a Millionaire is anyone whose assets are worth one million or more..
But there are several ways to determine a person's status as a millionaire.

Sahal - Actually that's not true.. Despite the recession the number of millionaires in the UK has risen..

The problem of the old money was not having a class beside it except the banadir money and some reer waqooyi who had pulled out their money in the year 88 into a places like djbouti and africa. Here in the uk there is one of these nomads a well known man who was close to the ex regime and now is just a sh!t.
it wasnt really theirs. These nomads didnt know about money management and to invest it in abroad so they left it behind

Only Somali millionaire I can think of is the guy that bought a Rolls Royce in Dubai.

[Titanium]

Theres hundreds of Somali millionaires. Almost all are living in Africa or Middle East.

I know of one in Somalia who is a shareholder for one of those Somali telecoms.
