We know the world’s richest man is Carlos Slim Helu of Mexico,
followed by Bill Gates and Warren Buffet of USA .
How about governments?
Which countries’ government is the richest (having most money that is, in US$)
If you are expecting North American and European nations, you might be disappointed.
While the countries look rich, wealthy European nations can’t withstand a prolonged major financial crisis, just like Greece .
The USA might have the biggest economy, but the American government is not at all rich; in fact, it can’t even take out $150bn if asked to now without resorting to borrowing.
To date the US government has borrowed $14 trillion!
The UK , likewise, while the country/people are rich, the government isn’t.
The UK government’s debt stands at $9 trillion now.
World’s Richest Government
Richest governments after 2008-2009 financial crisis:
1. China

The death toll due to continued monsoon rains in Pakistan rose to 1,600 on Saturday, government officials claimed, as tens of thousands of people are still trapped in flooding waters that submerged dozens of villages across Pakistan.
Nadeem Ahmed, head of the National Disaster Management Authority, said that the north-western province of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and central province of Punjab had suffered most. Ahmed said 650,000 houses were damaged or destroyed and the country would need $2.5 billion for relief and rehabilitation after the worst floods in the country’s history.
There are two ways in which you can help flood effected people:
- Send your donations on the below mentioned addresses

I think we can predict with a 98% confidence level that the age of US dollar being the only and standard security money is numbered. Of course, this is not something that the US mainstream media is showing hour after hour as breaking news. But you step out of that hemisphere, and signs start becoming evident of the buzz that’s around. With this, there will be many icons that will fall and many assumptions that will be proven wrong, and all of that could lead to a major shock trigger.
My friends and peers could validate that I have been saying this for the last 18 months that the state of dollar and that of the US economy, (and hence, the global to an extent) would get a lot worse before it starts leveling off. I would not use the word ‘better’, because what lies ahead wouldn’t qualify for the use of that word, especially, in the context of levels of prosperity and spending (read: overspending) that we have witnessed in last two decades.
