Kim Jong II
North Korea is the place where Kim Jong Il made his fortune and lived like a king.
Even though it wasn’t a prosperous country and the media was receiving the wrong information about the country’s wealth, Kim Jong Il was eating and drinking like royals do.
Passing this lifestyle to his son after his death, Kim Jong Il was known to have a lavish lifestyle, with the most expensive food flown from all over the world, rare bottles of cognac and a yearly sum of money that raise questions.
We are talking about a way of living that costed over $300 million per year, money spend on the craziest demands and on expensive and luxury items.
This was possible due to the fact that over 2 decades he managed to raise a net worth of $5 billion, which he left to his son who rules North Korea in the same style, like father like son.
