I've always bought the BRW rich 200 mag. Got the latest one a few weeks ago. I was going through some junk just recently and came across a heap of old BRW 200 mags, the oldest, from 1991.
Richest man in Australia in 1991 was big Kerry, with a net worth of $1.9 billion. His son James Packer today is worth $4.1 billion according to the 2010 BRW rich 200 and is Australia's 6th richest bloke.
In 1991, the second richest person was Janet Holmes-A-Court with $850 million. Yes, her husband Robert was already dead in 91 . Time flys eh? Today she is worth $150 million, and doesn't make the rich 200 list.
Rupert Murdoch is not on the 2010 list as he is an American citizen, but is now worth $6.3 billion US, or about $7.7 billion aussie. In 1991 he was an Australian and was worth $740 million.
Australia's current richest bloke is Frank Lowy with $5.04 billion.
In 1991 he was worth $590 million.
Gina Rinehart is currently Australia's 2nd richest person with $4.75 billion.
In 1991 her father Lang Hancock was worth $150 million.
Anthony Pratt is currently Australia's 3rd richest with $4.6 billion.
His father Richard was worth $310 million in 1991.
Andrew Forrest is currently Australia's 4th richest and is worth $4.2 billion.
He is not listed in 1991 and I can't find any info as to if he had any wealth back that far.
Harry Triguboff is currently Australia's 5th richest with $4.2 billion.
In 1991 he was worth 330 million.
Kerry Stokes is Currently Australia's 11th richest with $2.29 billion.
In 1991 he was worth $120 million.
Gerry Harvey is currently Australia's 18th richest with $1.7 billion.
In 1991 he was worth $25 million.
I could go on and on. All very interesting.
See ya's.
