LifestyleTranscript
00:00Prince Salman's three sons just became the richest kids on the planet.
00:04We're talking $25 billion inheritance each, $1.4 trillion family fortune,
00:09$500 million super yachts, $450 million Leonardo da Vinci paintings,
00:14and $300 million French castles.
00:16These Saudi princes didn't just win the genetic lottery,
00:19they inherited pure liquid gold.
00:21Let's explore their empire.
00:24The world's wealthiest children.
00:26Picture this.
00:26While most children around the world are asking their parents for pocket money
00:30to buy candy or the latest video game,
00:32there are three young princes in Saudi Arabia
00:34who will one day inherit a fortune so vast it could literally buy entire countries.
00:39These aren't just any ordinary children,
00:41making them quite possibly the richest kids on planet Earth.
00:44Their names are Prince Salman, Prince Mashour, and Prince Abdulaziz,
00:48three young boys who were born not with silver spoons,
00:50but with diamond-encrusted golden spoons in their mouths.
00:53While their exact ages remain closely guarded secrets,
00:56what we do know is that these children are growing up in a world of unimaginable luxury,
01:01surrounded by wealth that dwarfs the combined fortunes of tech billionaires
01:04like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos.
01:06And with that kind of wealth, you can only imagine the kind of places they call home.
01:10The Al-Yamama Palace in Riyadh, which spans an incredible 4 million square feet,
01:15serves as the family's primary residence.
01:17To put this in perspective, this single palace is larger than 92 football fields combined.
01:22Built in 1983, this isn't just a residence.
01:25It's a testament to human architectural ambition taken to its absolute extreme.
01:29Walking through the Al-Yamama Palace is like stepping into a fever dream of luxury.
01:33The floors are made of Italian marble,
01:35while gold-plated fixtures catch the light throughout countless corridors.
01:39But this isn't just about expensive materials.
01:41This palace contains amenities that most people couldn't even imagine.
01:45There's a fully equipped movie theater where these princes can watch films in privacy
01:49that surpasses what most Hollywood stars experience.
01:52There's a bowling alley for entertainment,
01:54and even a mosque for spiritual reflection, all contained within their home.
01:57But the Al-Yamama Palace is just the beginning of their real estate empire.
02:01Mohammed bin Salman purchased the Chateau Louis XII in France for an eye-watering $300.
02:07Million, making it one of the most expensive residential purchases in human history.
02:11This isn't just a house.
02:13It's a 23-hectare estate that includes 7,000 square meters of constructed space
02:17and 5,000 square meters of living space.
02:20The property features a gold-leafed fountain that probably costs more than most people's entire homes,
02:25exotic marble imported from around the world,
02:27and bronze fittings that were crafted by master artisans.
02:30The psychological impact of growing up in such environments cannot be overstated.
02:35Imagine being a child where your bedroom might be larger than most people's entire apartments,
02:39where walking from one end of your home to the other requires planning like a small expedition.
02:43These princes are growing up in spaces so vast that they could literally get lost in their own homes.
02:49But homes are just the beginning.
02:50Let's talk about how they'll travel.
02:52The family owns a Boeing 747, 400 that has been completely converted into a flying mansion.
02:58This isn't just a private jet.
03:00This is a commercial airliner that has been gutted and redesigned to serve as a mobile palace.
03:04The aircraft features multiple bedrooms,
03:06each designed with the kind of luxury that five-star hotels aspire to achieve.
03:11The bathrooms are gold-plated because apparently, when you have this level of wealth,
03:15even the most private moments must be surrounded by precious metals.
03:19For water travel, Mohammed bin Salman owns the Serene Superyacht,
03:22valued at an astronomical $500 million.
03:25This floating palace stretches 134 meters and features not one but two helipads
03:31because apparently having just one helicopter landing pad on your yacht is for peasants.
03:35The yacht includes underwater viewing chambers,
03:38allowing passengers to observe marine life from the comfort of ultra-luxurious suites
03:42that would make most five-star hotels weep with envy.
03:45The Serene isn't just a yacht.
03:47It's a statement about what's possible when money becomes truly no object.
03:51Every surface has been crafted by master artisans,
03:54every room designed to exceed the boundaries of what most humans consider luxurious.
03:58The princes who will inherit this vessel will have access to a mobile resort
04:02that can take them anywhere in the world while maintaining a level of comfort
04:05that rivals the finest palaces on land.
04:08But let's talk about something that might seem more relatable, cars.
04:11Except when we're discussing the vehicles these princes will inherit.
04:14We're not talking about cars in any conventional sense.
04:17Family member Turki bin Abdullah owns a car collection valued at $22 million,
04:22including a gold-plated Lamborghini Aventador SV that costs $1.2 million.
04:28This single vehicle costs more than most people will earn in their entire lifetimes,
04:32and it's just one car in a collection that includes Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupes,
04:36Mercedes vehicles, and Bentleys,
04:38that each carry price tags exceeding $1.2 million.
04:41The concept of gold-plating a Lamborghini speaks to a level of wealth
04:45where even the most expensive luxury goods must be further enhanced to feel special.
04:49When a $500,000 supercar isn't exclusive enough, you cover it in gold.
04:54When owning one luxury vehicle isn't sufficient,
04:56you own collections worth more than most small businesses.
04:59Perhaps nowhere is their future wealth more dramatically displayed than in their art collection.
05:03Mohammed bin Salman purchased Leonardo da Vinci's Salvatore Mundi for $450 million in 2017,
05:10making it the most expensive painting ever sold at auction.
05:13This single purchase demonstrates a level of collecting that transcends mere wealth.
05:17This is about owning pieces of human cultural heritage that are literally irreplaceable.
05:22The acquisition of Salvatore Mundi wasn't just a purchase.
05:25It was a statement that money can buy even the most precious artifacts of human civilization.
05:30The family also owns works by Pablo Picasso, Jeff Koons, and Takashi Murakami,
05:35creating an art collection that rivals those of major museums.
05:38These princes aren't just inheriting paintings.
05:41They're inheriting pieces of human creative achievement that most people will only ever see in museums.
05:45The scale of luxury extends to their vacation experiences as well.
05:49A typical royal vacation can cost $30 million,
05:52such as a Maldives trip where they took over three entire resorts.
05:56This isn't about booking expensive hotel rooms.
05:58This is about purchasing exclusive access to entire resort properties,
06:02ensuring that their vacation experience is completely private and tailored to their exact specifications.
06:08King Salman's three-week holiday in Cannes created such a spectacle
06:12that they enjoyed exclusive access to premium locations and luxury amenities.
06:16Imagine having so much wealth and influence that your family vacation becomes a showcase of ultimate luxury and exclusivity.
06:23This is the level of impact that these princes' future travels will have on the world around them.
06:27The family also owns a 12000 hectare Limpopo game farm in South Africa that has been converted
06:34into an exclusive hunting resort with a private landing strip for jets.
06:38This property represents the kind of land ownership that approaches the scale of small countries,
06:43a private kingdom within a country, accessible only by private aircraft,
06:47and designed solely for the family's recreational use.
06:50The infrastructure required to support their lifestyle is perhaps as impressive as the luxury goods themselves.
06:55The royal family employs thousands of servants and staff,
06:58supported by a stipend system that costs approximately $2 billion annually.
07:03This means that the simple act of maintaining their lifestyle requires an annual budget
07:07that exceeds the GDP of many nations.
07:10Stipends range from $800 monthly for distant relatives to $200,000,
07:14$270,000 monthly for senior family members,
07:18with additional bonuses of $1 million to $3 million for marriages and palace construction.
07:23For the princes, this means growing up in an environment where hundreds,
07:27possibly thousands of people, exist solely to anticipate and fulfill their needs.
07:31This level of service creates a reality where these young princes may never experience
07:35the mundane aspects of daily life that the rest of humanity takes for granted.
07:40They may never know what it feels like to wait for anything,
07:42to want something they cannot have, or to understand that resources are finite.
07:47Their reality is one where human limitations simply don't apply.
07:50The combined value of these assets, the palaces, the transportation, the art,
07:55the land, the infrastructure, represents wealth that has moved beyond mere luxury
07:58into something approaching the resources of nation-states.
08:02These three princes aren't just inheriting expensive things,
08:05they're inheriting the physical manifestation of economic power
08:08that could reshape industries and influence global markets.
08:11Their wardrobe alone represents a fortune that most people couldn't comprehend.
08:15Custom-made clothing from the world's finest designers,
08:18jewelry collections that include pieces worth more than luxury homes,
08:22and accessories that are literally one-of-a-kind creations made exclusively for royalty.
08:26Every thread they wear, every watch on their wrist, every piece of jewelry they own
08:30represents craftsmanship and materials that push the boundaries of what's possible in luxury goods.
08:36The educational opportunities available to these princes extend far beyond traditional schooling.
08:41They have access to private tutors who are world-renowned experts in their fields.
08:45Educational experiences that include traveling to historical sites with leading archaeologists
08:50and learning opportunities that most universities couldn't provide.
08:54Their education budget alone probably exceeds the endowments of major institutions.
08:59But even after the palaces, the superyachts, the jets, the gold-plated cars,
09:02the rare art and the private kingdoms they call vacation spots,
09:05we've only scratched the surface.
09:07Now let's talk about just how astronomical their wealth really is.
09:10The family's wealth.
09:13These three princes are direct heirs to the House of Saud's collective net worth of approximately $1.4 trillion,
09:19a fortune so incomprehensibly massive that it's literally 16 times richer
09:24than the entire British royal family's wealth combined.
09:27To put this into perspective, if you spent $1 million every single day,
09:31it would take you nearly 4,000 years to spend their family's collective fortune.
09:35That's longer than recorded human history.
09:37The sheer scale of wealth we're talking about here is something that challenges the very limits of human imagination.
09:43When most people think about generational wealth,
09:45they might picture a trust fund worth a few million dollars,
09:48maybe tens of millions for the truly privileged.
09:50But Prince Salman, Prince Mashour and Prince Abdulaziz are inheriting wealth
09:54that operates on an entirely different plane of existence.
09:57Wealth that could reshape entire economies, fund space programs,
10:00or quite literally purchase small nations.
10:03Their father, Mohammed bin Salman, has consolidated this incredible fortune
10:07through his control over Saudi Arabia's vast oil reserves,
10:10managed through Saudi Aramco, the world's most valuable company.
10:14But it doesn't stop there.
10:15The public investment fund, which MBS chairs, manages over $650 billion in assets,
10:20including stakes in global giants like Uber, SoftBank and Citigroup.
10:24This means that these three young princes aren't just inheriting oil money,
10:28they're inheriting pieces of the global economy itself.
10:31What makes their situation even more extraordinary
10:33is the level of privacy that surrounds their lives.
10:36While their names were identified in recent reports,
10:39the family maintains strict privacy for younger members,
10:42shielding them from the public eye in ways that even other royal families cannot match.
10:46These children are growing up in a bubble of privilege so complete,
10:49so all-encompassing, that they may never truly understand
10:52what it means to want for anything, ever.
10:54But their inheritance isn't just about money in bank accounts or investment portfolios.
10:59These three princes are set to inherit a lifestyle that redefines the very concept of luxury.
11:05We're talking about palaces that span millions of square feet,
11:08private jets that have been converted into flying mansions,
11:11superyachts that cost more than most countries' annual budgets,
11:14and art collections that include some of the most valuable pieces in human history.
11:18The cultural impact of their upbringing extends far beyond material possessions.
11:23These young princes are being raised in an environment
11:25where they regularly interact with world leaders, tech innovators,
11:29entertainment moguls, and cultural icons.
11:31Their childhood dinner conversations likely involve discussions
11:34about global business ventures and cultural initiatives
11:37that will shape the future of human civilization.
11:40While most children are learning about geography from textbooks,
11:42these princes are learning about it from the people
11:45who are actively reshaping the world map through economic and cultural influence.
11:49The psychological impact of growing up with such unprecedented wealth
11:52is something that fascinates sociologists and psychologists worldwide.
11:57How do you develop a sense of normal human values
11:59when your normal includes servants,
12:01whose sole job is to anticipate your every need?
12:03How do you relate to other children
12:05when your allowance could fund entire schools?
12:07How do you understand the value of money
12:09when your family's wealth literally grows
12:11by millions of dollars while you sleep?
12:13The Saudi royal family operates a stipend system
12:15that costs approximately $2 billion annually,
12:18with payments ranging from hundreds of dollars for distant relatives
12:21to hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly for senior family members.
12:24For Mohammed bin Salman's sons,
12:26their allowances will likely exceed what most CEOs earn in entire years,
12:30and this will be just their spending money, not their actual inheritance.
12:34What's perhaps most remarkable about their situation
12:36is that they're not just inheriting static wealth.
12:39They're inheriting wealth that continues to grow exponentially.
12:42Every day that passes,
12:43every barrel of oil that Saudi Arabia pumps from the ground,
12:46every successful investment made by the public investment fund
12:50adds to their future inheritance.
12:52While other children are learning to save their allowances,
12:54these three princes are watching their future fortunes
12:57grow by millions of dollars without lifting a finger.
13:00The implications of their wealth extend far beyond personal luxury.
13:04As members of the Saudi royal family,
13:06they are being raised in an environment
13:08that exposes them to global leaders,
13:10business tycoons, and cultural icons,
13:12potentially shaping them to become future leaders
13:14in philanthropy, governance, or business.
13:17Their education isn't just about mathematics and literature.
13:20It's about understanding how to wield influence on a global scale.
13:23The story of Prince Salman, Prince Meshaw,
13:25and Prince Abdulaziz isn't just about money.
13:28It's about power, influence, and the kind of generational wealth
13:31that has the potential to impact millions of lives.
13:33As they grow up in their golden bubble,
13:36protected from the realities that govern ordinary human existence,
13:39they represent something unprecedented in human history.
13:42Children whose inheritance could theoretically make them
13:45more powerful than most world leaders.
13:47What makes their story even more extraordinary
13:49is the timing of their birth.
13:51These three princes are coming of age
13:53during a period of unprecedented global transformation.
13:56While previous generations of Saudi royalty
13:58built their fortunes primarily on oil extraction,
14:01these young heirs are inheriting an empire
14:02that's actively diversifying into technology,
14:05entertainment, sports, and renewable energy.
14:08Their father's vision 2030 isn't just about economic transformation.
14:12It's about positioning Saudi Arabia
14:14as a global superpower across multiple industries.
14:17Consider the implications of growing up with access to resources
14:20that most nations can only dream of.
14:22While other children learn about money
14:24through piggy banks and small allowances,
14:26these princes are witnessing firsthand
14:28how billion-dollar investments can reshape entire industries.
14:31They're not just learning arithmetic.
14:33They're observing how mathematical calculations
14:35involving hundreds of billions of dollars
14:37can determine the economic fate of entire countries.
14:42Power, succession, and a $1.4 trillion family fortune.
14:46The question of succession in Saudi Arabia
14:48represents one of the most intriguing aspects
14:50of these young princes' futures.
14:52Traditionally, leadership has passed among the sons of King Abdulaziz,
14:56the founder of modern Saudi Arabia.
14:58But Mohammed bin Salman is expected to be
15:00the first grandson of Ibn Saud to assume the throne.
15:03This represents a seismic shift in the power structure
15:06of one of the world's most influential families,
15:08and it positions his sons as potential future leaders
15:11in ways that would have been unimaginable just a generation ago.
15:15What makes their potential future roles even more remarkable
15:18is the transformation that Saudi Arabia is undergoing
15:21under their father's leadership.
15:22Mohammed bin Salman's Vision 2030 initiative,
15:25which includes projects like Eniom,
15:27a futuristic city that represents the future of urban development,
15:31suggests that these princes may inherit
15:33not just a traditional oil-based economy,
15:35but a diversified, technologically advanced nation
15:38that could dominate multiple industries in the coming decades.
15:40The scale of this transformation cannot be understated.
15:43The public investment fund, which their father chairs,
15:46manages over $650 billion in assets
15:49and includes stakes in global companies like Citigroup, Twitter, and Uber.
15:52This means that these three young princes
15:55aren't just potentially inheriting control
15:57over Saudi Arabia's oil reserves,
15:59they're potentially inheriting influence
16:00over significant portions of the global economy.
16:03Consider the business education required for such responsibility.
16:07While other children are learning to manage allowances
16:09and complete homework assignments,
16:11these three princes are being raised in an environment
16:13where they observe firsthand
16:15how decisions made in Saudi palaces
16:17can impact global oil prices,
16:19influence international markets,
16:20and affect the economies of nations around the world.
16:23Their education isn't just about academic subjects,
16:26it's about understanding how to wield economic influence
16:29that operates on a scale most humans can barely comprehend.
16:32Research suggests they are being raised with exposure
16:35to global leaders, business tycoons, and cultural icons,
16:38potentially shaping them to become future leaders
16:40in philanthropy, innovation, governance, or business.
16:43This isn't accidental.
16:45This is systematic preparation for roles
16:47that could influence the economic well-being
16:49of millions of people across multiple continents.
16:52The implications of their inheritance
16:53extend far beyond Saudi Arabia's borders.
16:56The House of Saud's $1.4 trillion collective net worth
17:00makes them significantly wealthier
17:02than the British royal family's $88 billion
17:04and dwarfs the wealth of other prominent families worldwide.
17:08Their families' resources exceed the GDP of most countries,
17:11giving them economic influence
17:13that rivals that of entire nations.
17:15This level of wealth creates unique opportunities
17:17for the next generation.
17:19These princes are growing up in an era
17:20where their families' decisions about investment strategies
17:23can influence global markets,
17:25where their business choices can determine the success
17:28or failure of major international companies,
17:30and where their economic partnerships
17:32can reshape trade relationships between world powers.
17:35The educational implications of their inheritance
17:37are staggering.
17:38While most children learn about economics from textbooks,
17:41these princes are learning about it
17:43by observing how their families' decisions
17:45create real-world economic impacts.
17:47While other students study international business in theory,
17:50these young princes are witnessing firsthand
17:52how global commerce operates at the highest levels.
17:55But perhaps most fascinating
17:57is what their inheritance means
17:58for the future of wealth itself.
18:00Some estimates suggest that
18:01Mohammed bin Salman's influence over economic assets
18:04could be valued at $500 billion,
18:07representing a combination of personal wealth
18:09and economic stewardship that positions the family
18:11as one of the most influential economic forces in the world.
18:14The technological investments
18:16that will shape their inheritance are equally impressive.
18:19The NEOM project represents just one example
18:21of how their family is positioning itself for the future.
18:24This futuristic city,
18:25designed to showcase cutting-edge technology
18:28and sustainable development,
18:29suggests that these princes may inherit leadership
18:32over one of the world's
18:33most technologically advanced economic zones.
18:35Their future roles may include business leadership positions
18:38similar to Prince Khalid bin Salman,
18:40their father's brother,
18:41who holds significant governmental responsibilities
18:44or involvement in economic initiatives
18:46that will determine Saudi Arabia's position
18:48in the global economy for decades to come.
18:50The preparation for such roles
18:52requires an understanding of complex financial systems
18:55that most adults never encounter.
18:57The global nature of their inheritance
18:59cannot be overstated.
19:00The family owns properties in London, Paris and New York,
19:03creating an international network of assets
19:05that spans multiple continents.
19:07Their investments reach into virtually every major economy,
19:11making them stakeholders in the success
19:12of companies and industries around the world.
19:15What makes their story even more compelling
19:17is that they represent a new generation of Saudi leadership
19:20that may approach business and economics
19:22differently than previous generations.
19:24Growing up in an era of global connectivity,
19:27social media and international commerce,
19:29these princes are being shaped by economic forces
19:32that their predecessors never experienced.
19:34The philanthropic potential of their inheritance is enormous.
19:38The family has funded charitable organizations
19:40and pledged millions to initiatives
19:42like economic development projects.
19:44With their level of resources,
19:46these three princes could theoretically fund
19:48massive infrastructure projects,
19:50support technological innovation that could benefit millions,
19:53or invest in educational initiatives
19:55that could transform societies.
19:57The entertainment and cultural investments available to them
20:00represent another dimension of their wealth.
20:02From owning sports teams to funding major cultural events,
20:05from investing in entertainment companies
20:07to creating entirely new forms of media,
20:10their resources could allow them to shape global culture
20:12and entertainment in unprecedented ways.
20:15Their potential impact on sustainable development
20:17and green technology is particularly interesting.
20:20With the world moving toward renewable energy,
20:23these princes could use their inherited wealth
20:25to become major players in the green economy,
20:27potentially transforming not just their own country's economic model,
20:30but influencing global environmental initiatives.
20:33The space industry represents another frontier
20:36where their wealth could have transformative impact.
20:38With private space exploration becoming increasingly important,
20:42the level of resources these princes will inherit
20:44could position them as major players
20:46in humanity's expansion beyond Earth.
20:48Their wealth could fund missions,
20:50develop new technologies,
20:51or even establish private space programs.
20:54What's certain is that the world will be watching
20:56as these three young princes grow into their roles
20:58as some of the most wealthy
20:59and potentially influential individuals on Earth.
21:02Their childhood in golden palaces
21:04and their education in the corridors of economic power
21:06are preparing them for futures
21:08that will likely reshape our understanding
21:10of what it means to be wealthy, influential,
21:12and economically powerful in the 21st century.
21:15As these three young princes continue to mature
21:17within their extraordinary circumstances,
21:20the world watches with fascination and anticipation.
21:23Will they use their unprecedented resources
21:25to drive innovation in technology, medicine, and sustainability?
21:29Will they become patrons of arts and sciences,
21:31funding discoveries that could benefit all humanity?
21:34Will they reshape global business practices
21:36and create new models for economic development?
21:39The answers to these questions will likely define not
21:42just their own legacies,
21:43but potentially the trajectory of global economics
21:46in the 21st century.
21:47With great wealth comes great opportunity,
21:49and no children in human history
