So, trying to be useful, the COLORS editorial team spent the entire day searching for the richest teenager on earth.

It hasn't been as easy as you'd think.

Measuring wealth is apparently very complicated for those who have it, all the more so when dealing with minors whom, in many cases, are only 'theoretically' wealthy (i.e. they'll get the cash when they turn 18, 21, 25, 35 or whatever arbitrary number has been decided).

For a while we thought it was 17-year-old Alex Hughes, but seems that while he's living large, he'll be living larger at age 35. Great story in the Observer here.
"'He would be better off with his friends if they didn't see him as the guy who's going to be loaded,' one lawyer close to the case told The Observer last week."

Then we thought it was entrepreneur Richard Branson's son Sam, who's set to inherit one billion pounds, but again, hasn't happened yet.

Then we came across Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe, who has earned about 13 billion pounds. Then the bugger turned 20 on July 23 this year.

While some of these videos may make you nauseous with envy or for various other reasons, this video discusses the profound question "how difficult it is to be rich, famous and young."

This one outlines actual earnings of some stars

Anyone out there know something about this?
