    Who's the richest person you have met (in person)?

    Curious to know who the richest person you've actually met?

    Met means spoken with in a two way conversation, not seen at a distance.

    PS. Dissing me on CUK does not count.

    Bill Gates but only at a conference.

    For someone I just ring up (and vice versa) and have a conversation with it would be Richard / Ian Livingstone. I think they come in at 50 of the rich list.

      Out with he kids and bumped in to Simon Cowell & Cheryl Whatsit outside the Radisson in Manchester 2 years ago and they stopped to have a chat to us (mainly the kids). They spent 5 mins just chatting away, not rude or arrogant. Changed my opinion of both of them in a shot.

            That dream where Richard Branson told you to open a tat shop and sell sledges doesn't count.

                  Probably Bernie Ecclestone and his now ex wife.
