The origin of Gunther VI's fortune dates back to 1992, when a mysterious Countess — Karlotta Leibenstein — tragically lost her son to suicide, and was left with no direct heir, GQ reported

She therefore left her sizeable fortune worth $80 million to her beloved pet, Gunther III

After the Countess passed away, the responsibility of managing this wealth fell to Maurizio Mian, an Italian entrepreneur and a family friend

Under Mian's care, Gunther's wealth multiplied to $400 million (approximately Rs 3,356 crore)
