Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, as befits the Arab oil sheiks, rich, extravagant and has two wives.However, the latter circumstance, it is clearly disappoint.The fact that, according to Islamic canons believer has the right to four official wives.There are, however, some of Islam, which do not limit the number four, but so have most respectable Muslim attitude as to the marginalized.So rich sheik has the right to four wives and married while only two, and one - in his youth, and the second - in thirty-five years.However, the second wife is the daughter of Dubai's ruler.So there is a dynastic marriage.

Yes, and the sheikh is not simple: royals, the brother of the ruling Emir of Abu Dhabi.Sheikh Mansour state has matched his royal origin.According to "Forbes" magazine, it is estimated at 4.9 billion dollars.However, with this huge pile of money, he is not included in the top hundred richest people in the world, occupying only one hundred and fourth place.

Sheikh Mansour graduated from high school in Abu Dhabi, and for higher education went to the United States.Where, after graduating from university, he became a BA in Political Science.Considering that the first step on the thorny path of education for him enough over herself nibble granite boulders are not tired, and devoted himself to the family business and all accompanying him, pleasantness.

In 1997 he became manager of Sheikh Mansour Office of the President of the UAE.Despite the democratic title as president in this country it is not elective and is owned by the emir of Abu Dhabi.It is inherited.In 2004, after the death of his father, who was a permanent president, presidential throne came elder brother, Sheikh Mansour, who appointed him "minister of presidential affairs."All in the best traditions of medieval eastern monarchy "Grand Vizier," must be a relative!Later he got to the UAE several senior positions, something painfully reminded of brovastogo activist era of developed socialism.

Sheikh Mansour, not bothering to public affairs (I would venture to suggest that those on the agenda in the UAE is very, very good), devoted himself to his hobby.But these or siblings of the monarch were many.Carried away by leaps, he has won several prestigious competitions of the Middle East, under the auspices of its annual race takes place on the highway in the emirate of Abu Dhabi.But this was not enough for him, and in 2008 Sheikh Mansour buys football team English Premier League, "Manchester City".

Yet, in spite of active sports and activities in semi Sheikh finds time for doing business.He owns a 32 percent stake in the company "Virgin Gelaktik," chairman of the board of directors of certain companies included in the same advice to others and so on and so on and so forth.How he manages to do so many things at once?In general, the time to you?

Here's a he, Sheikh Mansour, a simple Arab man, the owner of almost five thousand million state.The businessman, sportsman and politician.
