He's reportedly worth $187 billion - about £1150 million.
He could buy us a stadium out of his loose change.
Shame he seems more interested in golf than football (and hanging onto his money!)  |  | | |  |

Pretty sure at some point in the past he ruled out ever getting involved in football?
What's the phrase? "How do you make a wealthy man? Take a Very wealthy man and get him to buy a football club..." |  | | |

Have i logged onto the Cardiff forum by mistake ??
I don't want us to be a club who relies on outside investment, im more than happy as we are and i don't even care if it means dropping out of the top flight either. |  | | |

Unfortunately it seems that the board think differently. |  | | |

If i was a betting man i'd say all this talk is more about deflecting recent flak they have been taking.
Just a nudge to fans maybe ? be thankful of what you have kinda thing.
Just a thought.. | | | |

Yeah, it's probably that, and not "Hang on, someone wants to buy my shareholding and turn me into a multi-millionaire!". |  | | |

Have they been taking flak? They've been held up as the role model club by most of the media in the UK, subject of a film that's gone down a storm with critics. I think you'd struggle to find a club management structure that's held in higher regard (despite DYSS' rants). Most of the gripes on here are about queues for beer or led advertising boards or a slightly low-key approach (which isn't necessarily a bad thing imo). | | | |

He's actually worth $1.87 billion. Those tricky decimals!
($187 billion would make him the richest person on Earth many times over. ) |  |

If someone rich does invest in the club in the future (and this post is just a tongue in cheek reaction to the articles in today's SWEP) I'd rather it be a guy who on the face of it seems genuine, has a connection with Swansea and would be unlikely to sell us down the river, rather than some of the cowboys we've had in the past or some of those who have been involved in Cardiff | | | |

I agree with your words and while I think they have done a great job there have been a few clangers, low key ones as you say but clangers that have upset a few just the same .
As I sad on the thread RE dineen. It's all gravy as far as I'm concerned but my opinion of all this take over stuff is jthat its just a bit of faff.
Time will tell on this one but I would be very surprised to see the people that run the club sell up or hand over an amount of control to a stranger, though it would nit surprise me if one or two may want to cash in. | | | |

I don't think that conversion is right.
$187 billion would be about £115 billion, no? Think you're a factor of 100 out unless your starting point should have been $1.87 billion which sounds more plausible too. |  | | |

I Google'd how much he was worth and it said $187 billion which I then Google'd how much was $187 billion in sterling which gave me the answer.
At the time I didn't notice the decimal point between the 1 and the8 !  | | | |
