THE wait is finally over. The NT News kicks off its countdown of its much-anticipated Territory Rich List first thing tomorrow morning.

The Territory Rich List ranks entries by their estimated net worths and has been compiled using publicly available information.

The first three sets of names on our list — Numbers 15 to 13 — will be revealed on Monday exclusively on our website, ntnews.com.au

It will then count down by three entries each day until the Top 3 richest are revealed on Friday.

There are some very recognisable names on the list but there are also plenty of surprises.

There are some names you may not have ever heard of, and some that you may not have realised had such strong ties to the Territory.

Will Darwin’s famous Paspaley family, headed by Nicholas Paspaley, make it on to the list? You’ll just have to wait and see.

We can reveal that the entry mark for the 15th richest individual or family is a staggering A$450 million.

That’s the entry mark! That could help pay off a few bills, we bet!

So, don’t miss the Territory Rich List. Starting tomorrow, EXCLUSIVELY on ntnews.com.au
