Billionaires in Russia (4 photos)
About who this Artem Tarasov USSR found in 1988 during the release of the "Sight", which is considered one of the symbols of the restructuring. Journalist Politkovskaya said that the studio is the first legal Soviet millionaire whose salary per month is 3 million rubles. As evidence presented guest membership card, where it was stated that the amount of the contribution paid it with such salaries.
Quite unexpectedly, a guest called her name - Artem Tarasov, the chairman of one of Moscow's cooperatives, and at the same time he razvornulsya face to the camera.
It was an impromptu, on this turn did not agree in advance.
Naturally, this caused a shock in the Soviet society and the wave of discussions in the USSR. Cooperative Tarasova was closed account will be frozen. Tarasov was forced to go into exile in London in early 1991. Willing to relocate to Russia, he returned only in 2003. It showed up first.
Today, the media watching those in the hands of chih has collected billions of dollars. Rated by Forbes magazine list of billionaires of Russia 2009 is as follows: 1. Mikhail Prokhorov, 43 years - 9, 5 billion $
2. Roman Abramovich, '42 - 8, 5 billion. $
3. Alekperov, 58 - 7, 8 billion. $
4. Vladimir Lisin, 52 - 5, $ 2 billion. $
5. Alexander Abramov, 50 years - 4, 4 billion. $
A little more I would like to dwell on the first three persons in this list.
So, number 3 - Alekperov.
Early 70's, oil becomes the foundation of the Russian economy. In 1974 Alekperov finishes Baku Petrochemical Institute. Immediately after high school, he went to work as operator drilling a 5 course he already had the highest rank driller (remember how the team of drillers "Armageddon", led by Bruce Willis, but he personally until the world from catastrophe and not saved).
For several years Alekperov rose to the position of the General Director Association "Kogalymneftgaz", and in 1990 became Deputy Minister of Fuel and Energy. In 1991, during the coup, the head of the Emergency Committee and supported Alekperov flew off the post, respectively, we understand, who has now been appointed as the head of the ministry. In '91, he turns his ministry already in a state company "Rosneft", which brings together most of the Siberian fields and only three of them were put in a separate structure - "Langepas", "Urai," "Kogalym" - the first letters have been termed " LUKOIL ».
What is "LUKOIL" today no one has no need to explain.
Next on the list - Roman Abramovich.
From reading the biography of a famous (read the famous, wealthy) people (actors, directors, politicians, businessmen) in 80% of cases can be sure that he was unhappy (by the standards of society) childhood. My mother died when he was one year, his father died a few months later. Was raised Roman uncle. Grandmother in Moscow, he graduated from high school, at the entrance to the university failed and left for home Ukhta. Six months in a local institution that Abramovich dropped and went into the army. After demobilization he began thinking about what to do next.
Opening the first of his career business future billionaire did not know what awaits him on. While working in the cooperative "Comfort" forged several key relationships and a change of activity Abramovich - from trade jewelry and toys to conclude contracts for the supply of oil.
What's next? Next Berezovsky need someone who is knowledgeable in the operations of oil, and they became Roman Abramovich in his 29 years. Yeltsin signed a decree on the establishment of "Sibneft", Abramovich was there initially on a modest position as head of the Moscow representative office, but played a role new contacts with senior government officials, who then turned almost into a friendship.
In 2000, Berezovsky stood in opposition to Putin, he had to sell assets and leave the country. Assets bought who do you think? Abramovich. Pa-bam! Here it is, the richest businessman in Russia and one of the 20 richest people in the world. He is almost not conducted business in Russia - London life, football clubs, the assets transferred abroad.
And finally, the number one today - Mikhail Prokhorov.
Year of the man painted by month - Cote d'Azur, Sardinia, Dubai, Alps, Courchevel ...
Mikhail Prokhorov - a child from a family of good parents about such talk - "born at the right time and in the right place." Moscow Institute of International Relations in the USSR was a special institution of higher education of the country, are prepared diplomats. In 1983 at the Faculty of International Economic Relations studied here Oleg Kasyanov, Vladimir Shmatovich, Dmitry Ushakov ("Agros") and Mikhail Prokhorov and Alexander Khloponin. Receiving a diploma Prokhorov began to work in the International Bank for Economic Cooperation, the chief was Vladimir Potanin (small world!).
By the end of the 80 former Ministry predvraschayutsya into joint stock companies, and the former state-owned banks are commercial banks. Potanin and Prokhorov decided not to lag behind and on the basis of foreign banks in the USSR, two new "ONEXIM Bank" and IFC. The first led by Potanin, the second - Prokhorov and Khloponin. Moscow bankers - a separate power Halla, the trio became very wealthy, and if Khloponin in the 90s left the civil service (today continues his career, just yesterday received a new assignment), then Prokhorov - headlong into business.
April 13, 1996 there was a turning point in the fate of Prokhorov. Order of the government, he was appointed member of the Board of Directors of the then state "Norilsk Nickel", producer of nickel and platinum group metals. Next Onexim Bank acquired RAO "Norilsk Nickel", oil company SIDANCO piece NLMK and most of the North-West Shipping Company. All of these "flagships of the economy" have cost the company Prokhorov and Potanin about a third of its real value, making friends, business richest men in Russia.
That's so, somehow not casual leaves. What influences this career? Family, ability to work, luck and skill to be provided where it is necessary or just some innate sense of the situation, the ability to take risks? Their most frequent answer will be - everything is important. Does this mean that billionaire - it is fate?
