"Dubai Sheikh" Mohammed: Sitting on an 80 billion net worth, why did his wife and daughter flee one after another?
He is the chief rich marshal of Dubai, with personal assets of up to 80 billion yuan, married 6 wives, and raised countless lovers.
He is also a ruthless executioner, brutally imprisoning his wife and daughter, chasing and killing his wife who cheated on his bodyguards, and getting into hundreds of millions of divorce lawsuits.
How much wealth does he really have? Why is he so rich that he still can't keep his wife's heart?
Today, I will talk to you about the rich and powerful Sheikh of Dubai, Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum
Today, Dubai is the most famous city in the Middle East, and luxury has become synonymous with it. In a city that uses Lamborghini as a police car and LV as a trash can, there are only two kinds of people: rich and super rich.
But once Dubai was just a small fishing village in the desert, not to mention sports cars, not even a smooth road. The reason why Dubai has today's achievements is mainly because of a fierce man, that is, our protagonist Muhammad.
So how exactly did Muhammad create the "Dubai Miracle"? Let's start with the family behind him.
As the ruler of the Emirate of Dubai for more than a hundred years, the Maktoum family has a long history.
The family originated from the Baniyas tribe, and one day, buti, the patriarch of the Maktoum family, felt that it was impossible to work as a migrant worker for others, so it was better to start his own business. So he left the tribe with more than 800 people and settled down at the mouth of Dubai Creek, establishing a new emirate, Dubai.
Buti and his successors are also very contentious, bent on building Dubai.
In 1894, Hathel succeeded him as Emirate of Dubai, a prominent figure in the history of the Middle East. Under his impetus, Dubai abolished the commercial tax, which led to a rapid increase in freight traffic in Dubai Bay and rapid development of commerce. Over time, everyone got used to calling at Dubai Creek, laying the foundation for Dubai's leading position in the global shipping industry.
In 1969, Dubai mined its first barrel of oil, and the discovery of "liquid gold" brought another leap forward for Dubai. This once small fishing village has gradually made a name for itself internationally.
Born on July 15, 1949, Mohammed was the third oldest of his brothers. As a native of Dubai, he has been eating and wearing since he was a child, receiving the best aristocratic education, and has studied at cambridge university in the United Kingdom and the Royal Military Academy in Sandhurst in the United Kingdom. But on his return, Muhammad heard some gossip.
The old King of Dubai, Saeed, was an ambitious man who shouted the slogan: "Dubai must become the greatest free trade port in the entire Middle East".
But while the slogan was loud, others didn't buy it, believing that the current port was enough and that Dubai didn't have as much money to build a new one.
But Saeed defied public opinion and dug up the world's largest artificial deep-water port in the desert, Jebel Ali Port
The young Muhammad did not agree with this decision at first, so he asked his father why he had to insist on going his own way.
Saeed did not get angry after listening to it, and told Mohammed with a smile: "There will always be a day when the oil will be mined, and the development of the country cannot be limited to this." ”
His father's words opened up Muhammad's pattern, so he also inherited Saeed's ambitions and vision after becoming the chief of Dubai, and began to build a nation without stopping.
Muhammad famously said:
Whoever remembers who the second person to land on the moon is second is nobody remembers, so we have to lead.
It is under the influence of this sentence that Dubai, which originally had "nothing", has created many "world's best".
Because of so many of the world's bests, Dubai's fame is getting bigger and bigger, and every year a large number of tourists and talents from all walks of life flock to this desert city, constantly injecting new blood into this desert city, making Dubai one of the world's most dazzling pearls.
With the rise of Dubai, the life of the people of Dubai has become happier and better.
In terms of wages, Dubai provides many jobs with super high salaries and very simple wages for locals, and in terms of taking out the entry stamp, the monthly salary can reach 100,000, and the annual salary in minutes exceeds one million.
It doesn't matter if you don't want to work, the Dubai government will give you a subsidy of nearly 20,000 yuan per month to let you live.
In addition, if you are getting married, Dubai will give you a double-storey cottage so that you will no longer have to worry about the marriage room.
Of course, medical treatment and schooling are all free.
The national treatment was so good, Muhammad as king naturally did not treat himself badly, if the world's most capable person who can spend money is anyone, then he must be one of the favorable competitors.
As we mentioned earlier, Muhammad had hundreds of luxury cars. Among them, he most often rides the Mercedes-Benz G55 worth more than 3 million, but this is the cheapest gear, And Mohammed's garage is full of Ferrari, Maybach, Rolls-Royce, as little as a million, as much as hundreds of millions.
In order to park his car, Mohammed also spent 200 million yuan to build an 8-story parking building.
In addition, Muhammad is also particularly fond of horse racing, spending 3 billion yuan to build the world's most luxurious racecourse - The Maidan Racecourse with a big hand. He was not stingy in buying a horse, and some time ago he spent more than 30 million yuan to buy a high-class racehorse, and afterwards he sighed very politely: This horse is really cheap.
It was because of the horse race that Muhammad met his second wife, Princess Haya, and the two caused one of Muhammad's biggest scandals. Haya not only lost face to Muhammad, but also tore off the mask of the Dubai royal family singing and dancing, showing the most authentic Dubai royal family in front of the world.
Princess Haya was born in Jordan, a former Jordanian princess and the sister of the current King of Jordan. She has been a bully since she was a child, and she is all-round in sports and has achieved great success in equestrianism.
She began competing in international equestrian competitions at the age of 13, was the first female athlete in the Jordanian equestrian national team, and served as a torchbearer for the Beijing Olympics in 2008.
Subsequently, she met Muhammad, who also loved horses, and the two hit it off, and soon joined hands in the palace of marriage.
But marriage is said to be the graveyard of love, and the combination of "princess and chief" is no exception, although Haya can enjoy all the glory and wealth in Dubai, but many rules of the Dubai royal family also bind her breathlessly.
Moreover, Muhammad did not stop looking for a wife after marrying Haya, and Haya gave Muhammad a green hat in a fit of anger and had an affair with his personal bodyguard Russell.
It is said that every time Haya travels, he names Russell to escort him, and in general, bodyguards need more than 2 people, but Haya only needs Russell alone.
In addition, Haya also gave Russell many very precious gifts, including but not limited to a custom Land Rover, a custom shotgun worth 500,000 yuan, a country cottage in Russell's hometown, various brand-name watches and so on.
But the paper could not contain the fire, and the extramarital affair finally reached Muhammad's ears after 2 years, and Haya immediately began her own escape after discovering that the matter was exposed.
In 2019, With the help of her brother, Princess Haya, with the help of her brother, set off from Dubai with her two children and 260 million yuan, went to Germany and the United Kingdom, and finally lived in a mansion worth 800 million yuan that she bought in the United Kingdom, and began to prepare for a "divorce of the century" worth more than 40 billion yuan with Muhammad.
Speaking of this, everyone may have a question, the two of them are the chief of Dubai, one is a Jordanian princess, why did they run to the United Kingdom to fight a divorce lawsuit? So much money involved?
In fact, this is because in the British marriage law, there is no concept of "joint property of husband and wife", so there is no such thing as "premarital property". Therefore, when handling the divorce case, the British judge is likely to divide the property of the husband and wife into one person according to the "principle of fairness", that is to say, once Haya wins the lawsuit, it is likely to share half of Muhammad's family property, that is, more than 40 billion yuan.
In order to increase his own chips, Haya also exposed many of the "dark sides" of the Dubai royal family that are not known.
According to her, Muhammad was a highly controlling man who even imprisoned his wife and daughter.
In 2000, the 18-year-old Princess Sharmsa left Dubai to flee for the United Kingdom in order to escape marriage, but within a few weeks, she was secretly kidnapped by 4 agents and returned to Dubai while she was traveling, and has not been heard from since.
In 2002, Shamsa's sister, Princess Ratifa, also had the idea of fleeing Dubai, but before she could leave dubai, she was arrested and imprisoned for three years, during which she was said to have been fed some kind of medicine.
In 2018, with the help of two friends, Ratifa "escaped" again, intending to make a detour from India to the United States. As a result, she was stopped by the Indian Navy and sent back to Dubai, and there has been no news since then.
It is rumored that the first person to be imprisoned was not the two princesses, but Muhammad's eldest wife, Princess Hurd
Princess Hurd bore Muhammad 12 children, which can be described as a remarkable achievement. But she hasn't been seen in public for forty years, and opinions have been raised about her whereabouts.
Haya said that the reason why she fled Dubai was that her daughter did not want to be accused of marriage on the one hand, and on the other hand, she also wanted to get rid of the fate of being imprisoned.
Of course, these things are also the words of Princess Haya, and it will take time to prove what the truth is.
It is undeniable that Muhammad did lead Dubai to prosperity after becoming the chief, and from the results, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the "savior" of Dubai.
But if what Princess Haya said is true, then such a person who ignores life and imprisons his wife and daughter is indeed not a good husband and father.
I wonder if what you think Muhammad did is true?
