This boy worth is crazy..

lekwanum anyaoh,,,$20b usd...... I'm relocating to Brunei

I'm not surprised

haha haha. ........The real goat is always ready to outstage that malu in barca.......hahahaha orio rio ronaldo always d best

As far as I'm concerned, Cristiano Ronaldo is number one on my list of richest footballers.

I don't know any faiq whatever.

Cristiano Ronaldo is what I'd want my son to be like even if he isn't a footballer.

His razor-sharp focus is legendary.

If there was anything else in his life this guy could commercialize, he would.

He came into the industry with bad teeth and his looks weren't that good but he worked on it and makes money off it.

Yet, he is still level-headed.

The $20b na him money or na family money?

Faiq bolkiah is not suppose to be in the list because what he have is an inheritance.
