@ |jeep|
Don’t be sad na mas mataas ang ranking ni Atty. Felipe Gozon kay Eugenio Lopez III dahil you know what mas may edge pa rin si Mr. Geny Lopez III kay Atty. Gozon dahil mas batang naging millionaire si Lopez kumpara kay Gozon na medyo thunder na. Ang ka-level ni Gozon ay si Oscar Lopez na mas mataas ang ranking kumpara sa mga top brass ng Kapuso. Gets mo na ba?
August 29th, 2009 at 5:32 pm
3 po ang billionaires as of 2009 last yir 2 lng po
August 29th, 2009 at 6:04 pm
atleast nandun si OSCAR LOPEZ na isa sa chairman nag ABS-CBN and he’s rank 15
August 29th, 2009 at 6:22 pm
mas mayaman c oscar lopez na chairman ng abs kesa kay gozon
August 29th, 2009 at 7:57 pm
Oscar Lopez is the Chairman of Benpres Holdings, Inc. and the Lopez Group of Companies which are both affiliated with ABS-CBN. Furthermore, please google search the Top 50 Companies in the Philippines for 2009 as listed in the Business Mirror and you will find Benpres Holdings and ABS-CBN, nowhere is GMA7 listed. Oscar Lopez is also included in Forbes Magazine’s Top 40 Asian Altruists, in tagalog, mga asyanong nagka-kawanggawa o pilantropo.
Eugenio Lopez III will probably inherit shares of both Benpres Holdings, Inc. and the Lopez Group of Companies which will make him an even richer man.

well, hindi halata na nasa rank 23 si F. Gozon, look nmn ang GMA….so filthy, parang hindi pinagkakagastusan. anywayz, bka kaya yumaman ng husto kasi ayaw gumastos.

weee ;))

What do I get in knowing the top 40 rich pinoys? wala naman. Maybe it’s better to highlight the top honest taxpayers na lang, baka nga wala pang isa dun sa 40. It doesn’t make any sense to sensationalize the rich and the famous, you will just give them reasons to grin. Suggestion, mag topic na lang tayo ng underdogs or unsung heroes who made it to the top for the legacies they live life with, I’m sure it will be more uplifting and motivational sa nakakarami. We need heroes not idols. We need to see a Messiah or Davids among us, not Julius Caesar or Goliath with their precious metals on to them. Sana taasan natin yung antas ng pag-iisip. Money will not elevate us from 6 feet under, it is purity in heart.

P.S.
I would be very happy to see mang ponching ma feature sa Top 40, na nakapagpatapos ng mga anak sa college sa pagtatricycle at pagtitinda ng pandesal sa madaling araw. The fishball vendor who started with 100 pesos and made his 100th cart mark na ngayon nakatulong kumita ng disente yung 100 tatay na naglalabas nung mga carts. I heard this story is from Mandaluyong. I even admire a boy in baclaran church who sell sampaguita to help his younger sister be sent to school, sya ang tumigil muna to help earn money with his nanay. These are stories that will make us stronger. Seeing the humble ones live simple lives… and yet makin it to the top of their simple dreams. Hanapin natin yung Top 40 na ganto and we will see how motivational would be the effect to many, if not all. I’m not anti rich or pro kagaya kong mahirap, Tita Cory and Ninoy’s legacies, yan sampalataya nga ko don. Knowing who’s the richest will not help solve this country’s crisis. Feeding each soul with worthy stuff to be wiser will give better hope…idea ko lang naman.

Bakit ang mga nasa top ay puro mga chinese na??
is this Philippines for Chinese????????
August 30th, 2009 at 6:07 pm
@donski : Filipino-Chinese sila..Pinoy na rin, kundi sa kanila bagsak ekonomiya naten..ang mga purong Pinoy kasi walang hilig sa negosyo kaya ayan namamasukan lang sa mga Filipino-Chinese!
Eto ang dalawang bata na pinalaki ng magkaibang magulang:
Sa isang hapag kainan ng Pamilya ng Purong Pinoy:
Ama : Anak, mag-aral kang mabuti para paglaki mo may makuha ka ng maganda trabaho.
Ina: Tama ang Itay mo.
Totoy: Opo Itay at Nay.
Sa isang hapag kainan ng Pamilya ng Filipino-Chinese:
Ama : Anak, kaw aral buti para laki ka kaw hawak negosyo natin.
Ina: Tama tatay mo.
Tsinoy: Opo tay at nay. Xie xie (Salamat).
Sa pagnenegosyo lang pedeng yumaman ang Pilipino at hindi sa pamamasukan! Ang problema saten marami ang takot makipagsapalaran.
