The richest Somalis.

Postby GAMES » Thu Aug 28, 2014 3:15 pm

Has there ever been a list of the Richest Somalis in the world that has been compiled anywhere?

Like the Fortune 100 Richest Somalis or something like that.

I know Somalis are ultra private and very conservative people when if comes to discussing money and they don't like to brag about their wealth unlike Americans, but is there away to measure Somali wealth?

Another thing, do you think there is a Somali billionaire out there?

How much do you think the Richest Somali is probably worth?

$100 million?

*waits for all the fools to start googling and claim the richest man is from their clan.

Ps.no somali billionaires.only a few in the whole of africa. As for millionaires, probably, but these companies are often owned by numerous people and their accounts are hardly transparent. Baasto, get rich or die poor thursday.

Not so much about Qabiil, but how did these Somalis make their fortune and millions? I've been watching Cnbc's "American Greed", "The Profit" and Shark Tank alot lately.

Its amazing to me how small companies started and grew up to become multi million dollar companies.

Richest Somali I know who lives in my State owns 2 restaurants, and a cleaning services that about 11 Mexicans work at. They live in a very big house and all 3 of his sons all drive either Lexus or new model cars.

Wish I had lacag, instead of living from paycheck to paycheck.

What do you guys think is the most profitable business for someone to get into?

I always thought the Food Industry was where everyone tested their entrepreneunurial skills, to see if they were cut out for owning a business.

But the food industry is saturated here in the US, and there are plenty of Somali restaurants, so there is no point in going into opening a restaurant.

So what else is left for anyone who wants to start their own business?

Your question is too vague, this depends entirely on how much capital you have and how big your balls are.

And that's the thing, I have looked several start ups that I am good at and I think I could be successful, but there are twenty million people doing it already. Everything u think of, someone else is doing it.

I have a friend who opened up a franchised Gas station, but when he told what he had to go through to open it, I almost lost all hope of ever doing something like.

How do people just make it some cut throat businesses like that, without losing their cool or determination in the process.

I've written out my road map to riches. They only you'll be wealthy is through starting your own business or jointly with some top notch ppl.

My cousin told me that a bunch of guys approached him to start a tuna factory in Maakhir a while back. He asked about the partnership contract and they said it they were going by shariah :damn:

He turned them down and and a couple months later the same hafiz ended up screwing over his comrades in the process :wow:
