7th Nizam of Hyderabad: Richest Man on earth & also the poorest
By Amit SchandilliaNarrated by Vijayan MenonLength35m
About this audiobook
On February 22, 1937, the Time magazine featured him on its cover as the wealthiest individual on the planet, a position he's believed to have held his entire life. At his peak, his net worth was the equivalent of $77 billion in today's money. He used a 184-carat diamond worth over $70 million as a paperweight. And yet, he once refused to buy himself a new blanket because even the cheapest exceeded his budget by a mere ten rupees. This is the story of Mir Osman Ali Khan, the 7th Nizam of Hyderabad and the world's most spartan multi-billionaire.
