Vanity Fair's William D. Cohan is out with a big new profile of Saudi prince Alwaleed Bin Talal, the royal who Business Insider called a "dwarf-throwing billionaire" last year.

The story takes a close look at Alwaleed's relationship with the Murdoch family, how he made his $27 billion fortune, and his recent kerfuffle with Forbes over the way the magazine valued his holdings for its billionaires' list.

It also has some great revelations about how Alwaleed spends his immense wealth.
