Bill foley net worth $1.6 billion.
Rob Morrison net worth $40.3 million.

Bill's net worth is 39.7x that of Rob's.
Where do you get $40 million from? This is $600 million by itself: https://infratil.com/news/sph-notice-robert-william-bentley-morrison/sph-notice-robert-william-bentley-morrison/

Which is a mixture of shares owned directly by Rob and a few trusts that he's the trustee of. 

Googled net worth. Maybe I misread the data, apologies.
this article states it as $450 million, which is still 3.5x smaller than Bill.

its not about who's got more money, it's just that WelNix aren't the paupers people think they are. There was an assumption that Brown could have invested in the nix if he wanted to as WelNix are so hard up, but Brown himself said that they weren't interested in new investment. It would be great to get some new capital in, but it seems like we have the luxury of owners who arent desperate for it.

Welnix did very much pre Covid, go looking for potential White Knight investment partners, to share the 'heavy lifting'. From memory that was part of their strategy to take games to Campbelltown, Canberra, talk to South Melbourne etc. Almost appeared like they were a bit desperate at times to find some new capital investment. Maybe in part that was to just save the Nix as a club. Ward off Gallop, and his nasty metrics.

But appears that's no longer the case?? Be good to get some clarity on that one day from Domey, or even Rob M himself.

I mean I guess it is Welnix's private business on how the Nix is owned, and what the future ownership model is likely to be. But certainly Auckland have been very open that Foley is the main man, with Williams/Mowbray 15%, Brown 1.65%, Noah Hickey 0.2%, and Steve Adams yet to be decided.
