Rich List

Six Israelis and how many Jews? Haaretz does not let us in on that. Rather more than six has to be the answer. Green is just one such. They do not bother to mention Boris Berezovsky, Jew, thief, murderer and fugitive from justice. Nor Usmanov, another very nasty bit of work for that matter. The Wiki has a list of allegedly British Billionaires. It isn't but then that is the Wiki for you.

The rich list is for relatively small rich men. The seriously rich are dynasties. Larry Romanoff tells us about the The Richest Man In The World. He talks about trillions, not mere billions.

Six Israelis make list of 50 richest people in Britain
QUOTE
Six Israelis are among the fifty richest people in the United Kingdom, according to a report released by the Sunday Times. Sammy and Eyal Ofer head the list of Israelis and are in 15th place overall with a total worth of 3.4 billion pounds. Lev Leviev, who only recently left Israel for London is ranked 21st with 2.5 billion pounds to his name.

Some lesser known Israeli tycoons also cracked the top 50, including Benny Steinmetz and brothers Eddie and Saul Zakai. Of the top 20 richest billionaires on the list, only 6 were born in the U.K. Many of the tycoons, including Jewish Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich and Leviev, made their fortunes in Russia, after the fall of the Soviet Union.

When it comes to money they do get stuck in. They might even do it honestly. Of course if they are on the run from the law it is highly unlikely. Berezovsky knows all about that.

Sunday Times Rich List 2008: Top 100

Last Updated: 1:27am BST 27/04/2008


Steel magnate Lakshmi Mittal has topped the Sunday Times Rich List for the fourth year running with assets now valued at over £27,700 million.

The 57-year-old head of Arcelor Mittal's family fortune is estimated to have increased by more than £8,450m over the past year due to rising share prices.

In second place is Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich, with a £11,700m fortune, followed by the Duke of Westminster - the richest property developer in Britain, worth £7,000m.

Elsewhere Kirsty Bertarelli, a former Miss United Kingdom from Staffordshire, is the highest placed woman, appearing at number six on the list alongside her husband, the biotechnology tycoon Ernesto Bertarelli.

The Hinduja brothers Sri and Gopi, at number four, will celebrate the 100th anniversary of their father's £6,200m industry and finance empire in 2014.

Alisher Usmanov, a former prosecutor in Uzbekistan, who appears at number five, built his £5,726m fortune through steel and ore mines.

Hans Rausing and family, the shipping owner John Fredriksen, the retail millionaires Sir Philip and Lady Green, and David and Simon Reuben, who have been active in the British property market for a decade, round out the top 10.
