The Sultan of Brunei is one of the world's richest men, and not one to do things by halves.
His oldest child turned 18, so the Sultan asked him what he would like for his birthday. His son replied "Well Dad I wouldn't mind a car, now that I'm old enough to drive".
Not one to do things by halves, the Sultan bought his son the top of the range BMW 850, worth probably around a quarter of a mil.
His son was ecstatic about his present.
Later that year, the Sultan's 12 year old had a birthday. The Sultan asked her what she wanted. The child said "Well Dad I would like a big birthday party with all my friends, family and relatives invited".
Not one to do things by halves, the Sultan made a list of all the people his daughter wanted at her party, and flew them all on an all-expenses-paid trip to Disneyland, with luxury accomodation and chauffeurs...the lot.
The daughter was so happy about her present.
Later in the year the Sultan's youngest had a birthday, turning 6. The kid still had in his mind the great time everyone had at Disneyland, so when his Dad asked him what he wanted for his birthday, the kid replied "Dad can I please have a Mickey Mouse outfit?"
Not one to do things by halves, the Sultan bought his son the Collingwood Football Club!!!
