Ooh! Forbes is at it again with a new list of The World's Richest Royals!
For those of you who are too lazy to click the link, here's the list (with Dubai's Sheikh Mo rocking the five-spot):
1) King Bhumibol Adulyadej
(Thailand) - $35 billion
2) Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan

3) King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz

4) Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah
(Brunei) - $20 billion
5) Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
(UAE - Dubai) - $18 billion
6) Prince Hans-Adam II von und zu Liechtenstein
(Liechtenstein) - $5 billion
7) Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani

8) King Mohammed VI
(Morocco) - $1.5 billion

For the record, in March it was estimated that Warren Buffett is the richest person in the world with $62 billion. A Mexican telecommunications magnate, Carlos Slim Helú, is number two with $60 billion.
Which means that Bill Gates is only the third richest with $58 billion.
Poor Bill. However, maybe if Windows Vista wasn't such a vistaster he'd be up a little higher ...
