The Arab Fortune’s Child

Vanity Fair will publish next month in its printed magazine a special report about the fortune’s Children of the new generation from youth around the world.

Still you can the portrait of those rich young men and ladies online here .

Surprisingly there is only one Arab in the list with all Gulf fortunes. In the 0609-VF-WE043.01 top 10 , in fact No.10 to be accurate comes Badr Jafar. Jafar is executive director of Crescent Petroleum, C.E.O. of Crescent Investments AE, chairman of Gas Cities, this is officially. Unofficially he is known as Dubai Royalty playboy who had a fling with Naomi Campbell !! You won’t believe the amount of gossip websites links I found when I googled his name !!

In fact I remember something when he had a fight with Campbell and throw her stuff from his yacht that his name was not announced in the Arabic press at all !! We did not know whom Naomi was seeing in Dubai and unfortunately all the suspicion was towards Sheikh Mo himself !! 

In his profile at Vanity Fair I found something very interesting that differentiates him from other Arab businessmen officially , already it may give you an idea why in particular he found his way to Vanity Fair where there are much more rich Children then in the region.

Among his future plans :

 To develop private-sector business initiatives in order to bridge cultural divides, including encouraging the formation of a non-political Arab-Israeli businessmen’s council.

Well good luck for him in that , already it is not something we do not know but many businessmen in Gulf have economic relations with the Israelis but indirectly unofficially and secretly for fear of the public anger.
