According to other rich lists I've read, Schu is worth 750 million to $1 billion U.S.

I looked at these rich lists a lot in journalism class and so many of them are rubbish IMO. The only one I actually think highly of is the Forbes list. Lewis Hamilton is estimated to be worth $10 million because his bonuses are supposed to be $5 million and he has sponsors lined up. Hmm. . . Well, did the editor of the list check if Ron allows his drivers to earn money from endorsements? Also, doesn't a UK resident pay 30% tax on his earnings?

I have a suspicion that celebrity publicists plant numbers. There is no way that many celebs are worth the amounts the magazines claim they are. Again, just my opinion.
