Google says Gina Rinehart is the richest person in Australia and there's 159 billionaires here in Australia
This list isn’t correct.. the richest person in Australia is Gina Reinhardt $40 billion plus..
She also doesn’t pay any tax
It's clearly an older video. I'm sure it was correct at the time of recording.
Billionare"s money fluctuates quite a lot, putting a list out is always going to change from year to year.
Because Gina doesn't share her money with family or charity! 🤑 While Twiggy spreads his around! 🤗
@@jenniferharrison8915 absolutely not true ...maternity hospitals...Australian swimming team..she actually donates millions..just not as loud as twiggy
Murdoch WAS Australian! He took out US citizenship in 1985 so he could own TV stations.
But you dont have to give up your Australian citizenship to become a US citizen
@@AdrianCuyubambaDiaz Under the rules in the US to own the US media he had to give up his "foreign" citizenship.
@@AdrianCuyubambaDiaz in 1985 it was necessary for Murdoch to give up his Australian citizenship to remove any obstacles in his quest to own US tv networks.
@@cadifan ok, that's different. I thought he only needed the US citizenship
@@Sydneysider1310 this makes more sense. Apparently dual citizenship wasn't a thing in Australia until 2002
Murdoch renounced his Australian citizenship when Reagan made him American. NO TAKEBACKS RY! 😂
Fun fact: Clive is in fact the country’s fattest billionaire
Every time I get concerned about my cholesterol I remind myself Clive’s still around 🤷♀️
@@liammcintosh8466 Clive Creosote
Packer is taller and bigger I would imagine.
@@liammcintosh8466 Clive Creosote
I don’t know where this guy got his information from… But Gina Rinehart is infamously Australia’s richest person.
There's nothing infamous about her hard-earned fortune. She and her dad spent many years building up the family business. Along the way, many workers were paid huge salaries. And the government reaped obscene amounts of unearned royalties and duties to pay the non-workers for sitting around complaining. Nothing infamous about hard work.
@@majorlaff8682indeed!
@@majorlaff8682 i don't think guy means 'infamous' - yet another example of some moron thinking 'infamous' means 'even more famous'🤣
@@majorlaff8682 I can work just as hard as that and you can bet your bottom dollar I won't end up a billionaire. Accruing that much money requires many hardworking people to contribute and for you to benefit from the profits that they generate without giving them a stake in the business proportional to the relative amount of effort they have made to the benefit of the company. GTFOH with your claim that anyone's "hard work" is worth billions of dollars. Every billionaire is a policy failure.
@@Jeffzda I didn't claim that anyone's "hard work" is worth billions of dollars. I simply said how hard Lang Hancock and his daughter Gina worked to build up the business. Along the way, many hard-working people helped and were well-paid for their efforts. There has never been a requirement for paying the workers proportional to their effort.
There's no cost of living crisis. There's a corporate profiteering crisis.
@@FromTheGong in the case of Clive Creosote and Gina Whinehard its Corpulent profiteering.
No1 is gina and no2 is twiggy forrest both from Perth WA
Note to Ryan:
Clive Palmer is most definitely NOT the coolest one! 😮
Ryan meant that you may as well enjoy your money and dream big! 🥳
Clive Palmer is not a nice person. Ask his workers who he didn't pay severance pay too.
Clive Creosote
Strange, I worked with him and he was amazing. Invited over for dinner a few times and gave us a ride on a jet to different city was incredibly accommodating.
He is politically repulsive.
you can keep Rupert
He finances Mr Netanyahu's enterprises and political party.
Rupert is not Australian. He renounced his citizenship to become American.
He was born in Australia, so now the Nazis didn’t exterminate the Jews? Here’s a pieces of paper that rewrites history.
Australian here. There's no rewriting history, simply emigration, like thousands upon thousands of people around the world each year.
Rupert may have been born and lived in Australia, but he is an American citizen now, for nearly 40 years, since 1985.
My parents were born in the UK but became Australian citizens decades ago. They are Australian.
Now all we have to do is strip him of his Australian status for his Fox "News" antics. Good luck with the Mango Man whatever he promised him. Murdoch is a national disgrace!
@@JustJokes-bw4fs He was born in Australia. That makes him Australian... 🤦♂
Doesn't matter where he decides to emigrate to. He is an American resident that is Australian.
@j_edwards6075 That's absolute bs
When Palmer tried to sue the state of WA for not letting him in when the borders were closed during covid the front page of the biggest newspaper had his head photoshopped onto a different animal every single day for like a week. It was hilarious.
hahahahahaha
Rupert Murdoch is no longer Australian. He became a US citizen. Although unfortunately he still influences Australian politics.
Bonus points for paying attention and recognising Gina as "lady who didn't want portrait in Australian museum"
Remember when a millionaire was a big thing , now it doesn’t even buy a nice house .
The rich get richer.Who'd have thought? All our extra we pay now to live is going to a privilged few.
How about turning that around.
It's those "privileged few who make it possible for you and I to have a job
If they weren't doing what they did, we would be a much poorer country and people.
@@eshiestrik2756 the divide between rich and poor is getting wider all the time. Yes, the privilged few employ people but also exploit the workers and price gouge for greater profit margins.
Ryan, Gina Hancock Rhinehart is the richest Australian. There is actually a tv series based on the Hancock family called “The House of Hancock.” It’s a real life soap opera equivalent to Dallas and Dynasty with a twist. Theirs is a very interesting story even the best Hollywood writer couldn’t come up with it. You might want to look into it.
Note for the future, mention Clive Palmer to us again and you might lose a lot of us as friends. You are allowed this one mistake 😊
Murdoch hasn't been Australian for nearly 40 years.
He is internationally known as an 'Australian'!
Canon-Brooks just announced a new project in Northern Australia for the worlds' largest solar energy project to supply energy to Singapore via deep-sea cable.
And what a chamber pot of piss that was.
A Turkish bathhouse. Like we all need one of those 🤣 These huge mansions are a huge waste of land and they often sit empty
Sth African born. Australia’s first was Michael Robert Holmes à Court.
It makes me feel sick too. And this is only Australia. Imagine what these mega rich people in most countries do all over the world!
“Why can’t more billionaires be like this guy…” uhhh I don’t think we need any more Clive Palmers…
Better for Gina to own Australia than overseas buyers and Clive Palmer is not a nice person his business deallllllings leave a lot to be desired
This video is too old to be relevant. Gina is the top Fat Cat .. and Clive cancelled the build of his Titanic ages ago.
Murdoch inherited his Dads newspapers made them grow but didn't start from zero
Much like Trump...
Or Gina
I think Murdoch started in Adelaide yet I could be wrong.
Dreams can come true, in our Australia, any person can get wealth for toil here! You could buy a old shack and build it up? Or, like Chris Hemsworth you can just recharge in barefoot luxury near a surfing enclave between mega movies! Yes, Gina Rinehart was that person, she just bought more cattle properties! There's also entrepreneur Twiggy Forrest, the gambler James Packer, the trucking magnate Lindsay Fox, the paper king Anthony Pratt! 🤑
Rupert Murdoch is 93. His son, Lachlan, 51, has taken control of the business. Lachlan was born in UK and grew up in the US.
Loving your content mate. Keep it coming and come to Australia
You don't want people like Clive Palmer. He declared bankruptcy whilst remaining a billionaire, all his homes, cars ect.
Ran for parliament and ran the business from New Zealand in a room big enough for one small desk and one chair.
All this while not paying the staff what he owes them, making them redundant with no payout before starting it back up again under a different business number
My son is a master rigger and scaffolder, crane and other machinery operator. Years ago when he did a mining shutdown I checked out his pay slip for two weeks. Imagine my shock when I saw that he earned $11,000 NET (after tax). OM Goodness.❤
As a New Zealander it always makes me laugh when they mention Australia's "prime grazing land" and they show a picture of a dry dusty desert.
laugh mate. that dry dusty desert is full of gold rare earth metals, iron ore aluminium, diamonds. etc etc etc
@@julesmarwell8023 he wasn't having a 'go' at Australia he was just saying how funny how beautiful it is but then they show the outback.
Ssshh! We don’t want the rest of the world to know that we actually do have green pastures. If they think we are all desert they will stay away.
That big house on sovereign island is walking distance from where my parents live. It's monsterous and empty 90% of the time.. Sovereign island has massive houses many owned by Russian oligarchs and usually empty.
Also by Russian mafia
@@glenncocup3915 Kinda the same thing...
I'm gonna go down my sorrows on Winstons in that Melbourne bar.
I worked at Woolies with Scott Farquhar when we were teenagers 😂
Agree with most of your comments Ryan. Just note Clive Palmer is involved in politics. I too feel poor now.
You'd be surprised how much software was created by Australia. Heck we even invented wifi 😂
And they didn’t even mention James packer. I know he’s only worth a few billion but he is a well known billionaire. 😊😊
Got to agree with a few others. Clive Palmer is not a nice person. If I said what I would really think, he'd probably sue me. Very litigious.
Per capita Australia has more millionaires than anywhere else in the world.
The new york pennhouse looks like government flats
Better Gina own Australia than the Chinese!
Absolutely agree! 👍
14:38 thats a BIG boat parked.
What does it mean when a billionaire takes out a mortgage on his $100M mansion? I looked at it on Google Earth and there’s no horse paddock, no room for it, so it must be somewhere else, probably the other buildings they mentioned as well. It’s a long sloping plot that’s been landscaped all the way to Seven Shillings Beach. Take a look, Ryan. There’s also no tennis court so it must be elsewhere as well.
Murdoch makes and breaks Prime Ministers ans Presidents all around the world.
He is despicable
As rich as they are the Atlassian boys fly under the radar, they don't flash the cash so to speak.
They are members of the elites. Their connections tesla, nasa etc… all linked to WEF.
Pretty much lodge members. You don’t make these sums unless you’re a member.
They also generally seem to have ethics
I did my tax yodat and they even taxed my $180 dollars bank interest- while billionaires pay $0 tax! WTF
Top tax lawyers & legislation that favours them...
I love how at the start you were excited and by the end you were disgusted 🤣
A dude stole a $ 12,500 bottle of wine in Sydney's northern beaches. He probably drank it not realising the value .😂
🎉Clive Palmer just lives down the road from that big house on Sovereign Island...and that house is massive🎉
no. 45 now watching... me next aussie billionaire. I'll sponsor your family to become aussies Ryan
The Titanic guy called Clive Palmer made his own political party where is basically wouldnt turn up half the time in parliament or would fall asleep, his agendas were trying to be for the common man but at the same time he wasnt paying people wages and other expenses at the companies he owned - something like that - hes a bit like Australia’s less hyped Trump in many ways.
@@MrGluey666 Anything is possible in Queensland politics! 🤠
Murdoch WAS Australian... He is now a US citizen... And you're welcome.. Palmer is not a nice person trying to introduce far right politics... As I understand.
You Don't want to be like Clive Parker!!! You can not trust him at all , if he walked in wet and told me it was raining I would go out to look.
Gina is the top dog.
Loved seeing the disgust on your face xD
Murdoch is not an Australian citizen anymore, he is an American citizen now, as far as his business interests in Australia he is the biggest tax cheat bar none.
You need to do more research on Clive Palmer - a menace to Australia
The sad thing is these rich people have houses all over the world so they spend very little time in those houses. It’s just something to do with their money, once you get to a certain amount it stops meaning anything , apparently, not that I would know .
A hectare is 2.47 acres
Mike Cannon-Brookes has done a lot to advance Australia's ambitions around renewable energy and action on climate change. It would have been nice to learn more about what these billionaires are doing with their money besides living it up (and making more of it).
As the lady said..Gina Reinharst. 1 Gina Rinehart Metals & Mining
2 Andrew Forrest & family Metals & Mining
3 Harry Triguboff Real Estate
4 Mike Cannon-Brookes Technology
Yeah its Gina Reinhart got the money off her father Lang Hankok from iron ore in WA the mansions at Vaucluse Elizabeth Bay Mosman and Cremorne in Sydney
Meanwhile the rest of us struggle to afford our crazy high rent, and keep our lights on.
Clive Palma had his own political party.
I have one relative who make his money catering for Government and international Air Liners.
While another made his first Million printing Movin Pictures Printed T-Shirts while he was still in High School.
Rupert Murdoch is not Australian, he became an American citizen so he could purchase
American communication companies
I'm so glad Gina is buying Australian farms, saving them from foreign investors and keeping businesses going.
It feels like Americans care a lot about billionaires and celebrities. Most Australians don’t care. You don’t have to be rich or famous to have a good life outside the US.
But having too much money would be sweet.
"Happy Arvo!" It always sounds like a nice greeting and is intended, I guess, to be a typical Australian greeting. Well, I've lived in Australia for the past several decades and I have NEVER heard that expression used by Australians. "This ah-vo such and such is going to occur . . ." . . .yes. Some Australians DO use 'ahvo' in that manner, although it isn't much used at all nowadays. 'Ahvo' Is just (London Cockney?) slang for 'afternoon', pronounced 'ahfternoon' without the 'r' sound. SO, just to set the record straight, Ryan's 'typical' Australian greeting for Australian (and other) viewers to his page IS NOT Australian. It's just 'Ryan-alian'.
Murdock was born in Melbourne Australia. He made his money from his father who ran an Adelaide newspaper.
“This is starting to make sick” 😂 too right
Who wouldn’t go on that 🤔
Ryan, if you become a billionaire you need to know who are your friends. G'day mate!
😂
I could see the Simmering Anger on your face lol
Don't worry about Gina, worry about China owning humungous areas of land, cattle stations, lithium mines and a port!
USA and UK owns way more than China ever will
Not so long back Gina spent serious $$$s buying up a large portion of lithium miner Lion Town. Their share price has been in the doldrums ever since. But my partner also has (modest) shares in Lion Town and intends to hold on to them over the long term. Gina may not be terribly likeable, but she's shrewd.
Believe it or not Rineheart *alone* owns more of Australia as a % of land area than China. China owns 2.2% of Agricultural land, 90% of which is leasehold, so technically will eventually revert to Australian ownership. They own ‘outright’ as much as such a thing exists in another country only 0.2% of Australian agricultural land. The UK owns 2.2% (again mostly leasehold) the USA 0.8% (actually the majority outright). The Netherlands owns twice as much Australian agricultural land outright as China.
Ultimately the port is the only substantial asset China has leased in Australia given its strategic value. The others are such a small % of the total (and have been decreasing).
I’m watching. Leave it up to you to decide if I am a billionaire or not.
Rupert Murdoch renounced his Australian citizenship to become an American citizen.. and he is not known for caring for his employees. His wonderful parents would be spinning in their graves.. AMERICA? YOU CAN HAVE RUPERT! WE DON'T WANT HIM BACK... EVER!
Gina's ensemble seems designed to blend into the sofa. Like billionaire camo.
Palmer is more like Alan Bond, a basically insolvent "billionaire" who's liabilities exceed his assets. Only a corporate web and a mass of highly paid lawyers keep him out of a cell.
Palmer also resuscitated an old school political party and made a fool of himself as a federal senator for a term.
Australia has 132 billionaires, according to Google but that makes no sense to me! How can China have 814? It’s a communist country! Japan has 40. The video has different numbers. I don’t think anyone knows for sure except the governments of each country.
You couldn't blame Gina for not wanting a portrait - bet she doesn't have lotsa mirrors.
Over the last ten years Australia has attracted more billionairs per capita than any other country.
We don't need more Clive Palmers
I was belly laughing at your faces and if you become an Australian Billionaire I would like to put in my application for a loan please 😂
Meanwhile I’ll just have to stay happy here on the SunnyCoast being poor like you 😂
If I win Tattslotto I’ll give you a shout out so you and your family can come on down under 👍
If I were one of the 44 I would dress like a tramp to hide it. Not showering for weeks would also keep the riff raff away so I could be left alone to get more billions.
Rupert Murdoch is an ex Australian, I believe he gave up his citizenship for American
No one says happy arvo 😂
*How ya goin?
*gday mate
*hey
*hello
All great! Go listen to Kyle and Jackie O on their radio station and listen to how we actually speak.
The richest person in Australia is an American heiress living in Scone NSW
I don’t want to be a billionaire. I would have to worry about my money all the time and that’s not fun.
Also Australia now has 139 Billionaires.. way up from the 44 when this original video was made..
My father witnessed Murdoch telling his first wife off for buying a sewing machine, LOL. His father Keith is famous and a legend not so sure about his son though.
Hilarious. T he richest people in Australia aren't even on the public radar. Except Gina , who's prepared to step up for the sake of women's sports.
Haha! I love it! All the ne'er-do-wells whinging in the comments about those that have risen to the top. So predictable.
only the tech guys rose up from nothing, all the others inherited their wealth and by ripping off everyone else, especially during Covid pandemic
The page family own the last one
This is not the real billionaire list Gina Rienhardt is our richest person
I’m surprised Kench Allenby didn’t make the list (look him up).
At 11:25 my cousin bought that house 🤭🤭
I still live in my small home in suburbia that we bought back in 1964 and love it unfortunately down here the rich are getting richer and poor poorer a lot is coming from the hoax of climate change 🙏🙏🙏🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
So in all your years, you have truly never noticed Any change in the climate? I am an Aussie of same Vintage and know that the humidity and Tropical Storms I know in QLD, now happen in Melbourne.... Where it used to be COLD. But sure, it's a hoax.... 🤦♂️ Sheesh! 😳
A paper by Italian researches have come to a conclusion there is no evidence of climate change
Must have spent all those years never leaving your basement if you haven't noticed things are a tad bit different from what it was.
They buy these properties more for the tax breaks and to invest their money the only sensible way ie upkeep they never rent them!
They could rent them at a loss & still get the tax breaks.
Better yet, buy/build a few hundred small houses & rent THEM at a loss.
Ultimately they can’t get a tax break on more than one home they do not produce income from (eg rent out), and even then it’s limited to any capital gains. Typically they would make more investing in other things, as the track record on properties of the size of these is often a coin flip as to whether it will be a profit or a loss. Sometimes the best way to become a millionaire is to start as a billionaire and buy an expensive property.
