A Royal Realm of Extravagance: The Kuwaiti Royal Family's Unmatched Opulence Surpassing Elon Musk and Bill Gates Combined

Kuwait may be a small country in terms of size, but there aren’t many nations that are financially comparable to it. The extravagant lifestyle of the royal family and the oil-rich state’s wealth are on display. The first Emir, Sabah I bin Jaber, is credited for turning Kuwait into a major center of trade and commerce in the Arabian Peninsula. They discovered oil in 1930, which propelled them to an unimaginable level of wealth. The SCMP estimates the enormous $360 billion wealth of the ruling Al Sabah family. They are now the second-richest family in the world, behind the House of Saud of Saudi Arabia. Their success is the consequence of unearthing black gold over time and making wise bets in industries like finance, real estate, telecommunications, and more.

Their real estate holdings are so large that they might constitute a tiny country on their own. One such is the ongoing Sabah Al Ahmad Sea City project, which constructed a 200-kilometre beach for Kuwaitis to enjoy the sea and sand. The Emir’s extravagant lifestyle is evidence of the advancements made by the country under his direction.
