Ulitzer95 12,586 Posted October 9 Keeping vandalism and edits of personal tributes off his Wiki page is becoming a mission. If there's any Wiki admins on here, please do lock his page. Lots of stupid Indians editing his page with shite like "He passed away.... RIP #TataBoyz". I suppose he was like a deity to them. One step below cows anyway. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Obituaries: BBC Given that Ratan Tata was nearly 87, I was somewhat surprised to see that his step-mother, Simone Tata, is still alive.

Of course Li Ka-shing was well enough to congratulate him. How many Asian billionaires there are left born in the 1920s?

"Retired" this year. *snip* Olav Thon (wiki), Norwegian billionaire real estate developer, dead at 101. First wife died in 2018, so he got remarried in 2019 (as you do). No children, so presumably Anna Nicole Thon will inherit everything. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
