The term 'beggar' often evokes the thoughts of the individuals associated with poverty, facing financial instability, wearing worn-torn attire, and having unkempt hair.

However, there are some individuals who have turned begging into a profitable and lucrative profession, taking begging into a new dimension.

According to a report by Economic Times, Bharat Jain is the wealthiest beggar globally and can be seen begging on the streets of Mumbai.

Due to financial instability, Jain was unable to pursue formal education, though he is a married man with a family that includes his wife, two sons, his brother, and his father.

Despite his humble beginnings, Jain has accumulated a net worth of 7.5 crore rupees. His monthly earnings from begging range between 60,000 and 75,000 rupees.

Further, he owns a 2BHK flat in Mumbai worth 1.2 crore rupees, and owns two shops in Thane that rent for 30,000 per month. Jain reportedly begs at prominent locations Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus railway station (CSMT) or Azad Maidan.
