With the sub-prime tremors cooling down and with nothing else better to do on a slow news day, Forbes has compiled a list of Korea’s richest 40 people. I know the gallery is not as interesting as the race girls or Djamilya scrubbing away dirt and body oil, but I sort of think that #4, Lee Myung-Hee, is a bit of a MILF.

“but I sort of think that #4, Lee Myung-Hee, is a bit of a MILF.”
At 64, she’d be a GILF.
#1. i was thinking the same thing.
I shudder at the thought!
To think, you guys are living amongst all the hot Korean chicks in Seoul and I’m over here in NYC with very a limited pool of Kgirls… That’s a slap in the face to me…a very, very hard one.
i think korea has the highest % per captia of MILF’s in the world
as a matter of fact i would totally back the
“Hub of MILF’s” idea!!!!
So, the richest Korean is only as rich as Wallace McCain (the frozen French fries guy)? I don’t buy it.
# 5,
The key here is REPORTED income… not actual income, which is who knows what….
you should really consider getting an eye exam…
You dudes are sick if you think that’s hot.
Aside from Italy, can anybody think of another democratic country where the richest guy is presently a politician? Just wondering.
Also - and Italy with Berlusconi and his TV stations also springs to mind here - is Chung, at least in principle, supposed to be “uninvolved,” so to speak, with Hyundai Merchant Marine’s day-to-day affairs while he is in office?
#6
Exactly. For instance, take the Samsung supposed ex-Chairman himself:
#3 Lee Kun-Hee
Net Worth $2.7 billion
The recently-discovered embezzled money alone was far more than a paltry $2.7B. Furthermore, I’m assuming his disclosed net worth is simply what his accountants could not hide.
He likely has at least 10x the disclosed $2.7B at his fingertips, if not more.
In his case, if I remember correctly, he owns 4% of Samsung Electronics stock in his own name. At its current market cap of $72 bil, that accounts for all of the $2.7 bil. I think Forbes is just using the publicly available stockholding info, rather than using actual forensic accounting.
Ha! What am I saying? It’s Forbes. What did we expect - research? It’s the tabloid press of business “news”.
Admittedly, if it’s embezzled money, it’s not his
But yeah, as you formulate it, he probably has access to much much more money…
