Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal is the grandson of the founder of Saudi Arabia and is not just a prince by title. The Saudi Arabian Prince is a business man who knows a lucrative deal when he sees one, and having a heart and wealth so big, he announced, in the past, that he would be donating around $32 billion of his personal wealth to charity.
The generous Arab royal is the owner of the renowned Rotana enterprise, and rubs shoulders with the likes of Rupert Murdoch – since he is an investor in the media mogul’s news corporation. It doesn’t stop there as you may not know that Prince Alawaeed’s own investment company, Kingdom Holdings, has shares in these huge companies:
