I wonder how he made so much money.
Eat The Rich
Could you imagine what 2 billion dollars could do for the poor in his country. What a piece of shit.
Agreed. What an asshole.
Sad!
If you’re gonna spend that much money on your home, you’d figure it wouldn’t be such a butt freaking ugly building
You assume that money just fell out of the sky and now he has to choose what to do with it. I’m sure he worked hard for it and wouldn’t have if he didn’t plan on spending his earnings on himself
Ok, but that doesn’t me he needs to spend 2 BILLION dollars on a house…he lives in a place a large majority of people live in hovels. If I worked hard and made a substantial amount of money, I too would spend a large portion on myself…but I would also try and help my fellow man; nobody deserves to live the way many do in India, or anywhere for that matter.
Who gives a damn how hard he worked for his country. A full gym for each family member? What the hell? One good size gym wouldnt cut it. This guy is a fucking asshole and should be murdered in front of his family.
Just one word…. OIL
$4.00 per gallon in the US so that these crazy M.F.s can spend billions on crap-tastic structures like THIS?!?!
Ghandi has certainly rolled over in his grave….
Mukesh Ambani (born April 19, 1957 in Yemen) is an Indian businessman and the world’s fifth richest man, with a net worth of approximately $43 billion. He is the chairman, managing director and the largest shareholder of Reliance Industries, India ’s largest private sector enterprise and a Fortune 500 company. His personal stake in Reliance Industries is 48%. His wealth is valued at US$43 billion (according to Forbes), making him the richest man in Asia. Mukesh and younger brother Anil are sons of the late founder of Reliance …
fuck that asshole i hope he falls of the roof
the ambani u see there is 2nd generation, his dad started up a textile and spice business way back when. its a rags to riches story. they came out with an IPO at the equivilent to 2 dollars a share. RCC, the company split and made subdivisons in the steel industries and gas industries. the combined worth of holding one share of each company is about 72000 dollars. bill gates donate rouch 2.5 percent of his income. ambani donate rough 4 percent. say anything about ethics to those who were saying hes an asshole?
bill donates roughly*
I hope his next home is worth $4 billion. All you whiny little shits ought to get out of your momma’s basements, get a job and a life. This guy’s money is his to do with as he chooses. Good for him. I hope he wipes his ass with $1,000 dollar bills.
He’s already donated WAY over a billion dollars to charities. What have you sissies ever done.
he is an uncle of mine, this is really disrespectful of my family. btw i got a ferrari and a lotus for my birthday last year. hurrah for money hahahahaha
luckily he probably has enough security to obliterate you and your attempts to steal his wealth. you socialist garbage dispensers have no clue what wealth is or what creates it. you have no idea what money is or how to manage assets. stick to your video games and dont forget to include my fries in my order
Everyone who is bagging him for the money he has spent on this home do your research. The CURRENT value is 2b he wont spend 2b on it. his real cost his around 200m. and people have wasted 200m before so dont go giving him shit about it.
Wow jealously runs deep in you pussies. This guy can buy and sell people like you lazy complaining bitches. The reason that is is because he works you complain.

Yeah I don’t think he’s spending 2 billion on it. Most of the supplies and labour would be from his own company, so the real cost to him would be around 200 million. Two billion is the value of the building, not the actual cost.
Get a life morons. Stop hating.
Its upto him what he wants to do. I am a millionaire but my house is more modest than people around me with fraction of my wealth. I’d keep things a bit low if I were him.
I wish, i could be as rich as he is, i would’ve built the most expensive house ever. Its a history!… Wao!… 2b. He is incredible. I envy you anyway…
$2 billion is too much…..but he has earned so he has the right to spend it ne way he wants.
very good, if somebody have money, he have full right to spend it as he like
I think spent 2.0 billion is too much for a house in India, to build a moderate hosue for living and entertaining several other billioners a $100 million dollar house should be enough and rest can be use for charity.
