awawgoian][quote=Angus MacgyverKKR: AUM ~US$60B.

Pope: Number of Catholics worldwide ~1.2B. Weighted average price of a slave (estimate for $ value of a person) is US$430. Pope's AUM is therefore ~US$516B.

Pope wins.

You may be undervaluing the pope's AUM: http://www.care2.com/causes/epa-puts-the-value-of-human-life-at-9-1-mil…]

Well... yes. Vastly undervalued, IMO. I'd wager that the average Catholic person is likely to be worth far more than the average slave, but still. Let's just say that it's a conservative estimate.

 
hamm0Also the pope has his own country..

Right...but what about the Pope vs the President of the United States of America?

I'm grateful that I have two middle fingers, I only wish I had more.
 

A megafund can only raise money as long as it doesn't consistently under perform or is distraught via illegal practices. The pope can make people do whatever he wants and raise money till the end of time.

 

I'd go with the Pope: millions of fanatical followers, millions of normal followers, billions in the bank, trillions in tangible assets, a baller house and cars, and the oldest standing army in the world.

Show me a fund manager with that shit.

Disclaimer: I am in no way a fan of, nor endorse the Pope.

So, Ernst von Freyberg, MD at DC Advisory Partners, has just been appointed as Chairman at IOR (Vatican Bank). How does this position rank in terms of prestige?
