    Peanuts compared to the trillions his worth would be by being the absolute and highest authority and owner of the entire land of Tibet and hundreds of thousands of serfs and slaves. That is if the bad chinese didnt take that away from him

    Snopes writer here: While it is true that the Dalai Lama's net worth is 150 million dollars, it's on a Bermudan bank account so it doesn't count.

      Here’s another Snopes take:

      The Dalai Lama is a religious leader for the Tibetan sect of Buddhism and lives in poverty. His net worth is a dollar because he has no possessions other than bare necessities.

      The failson lama has a private corporation that oversees his affairs similar to the royal family in England. That company, which handles his travel and foreign engagement similar to a family office, has $150 million in assets.
