Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and his family have amassed a fortune estimated at $70 billion according to analysis by Middle East experts poll by the London Guardian. And very little of that stash is kept in his own country, they say. Much of his wealth is in British and Swiss banks or tied up in real estate in London, New York, Los Angeles and along expensive tracts of the Red Sea coast. His sons, Gamal and Alaa, are also billionaires.

he could probably have 3 times that amount of money. They just guesstimate a figure based on egypts GDP and how long he has been in power...how can they really know what he has?
"A protest outside Gamal's ostentatious home at 28 Wilton Place in Belgravia, central London, highlighted the family's appetite for western trophy assets." You can have a look at this on streetview on google maps. End of terrace house, quite a few floors. £5-10 million maybe?
