Roman Abramovich: biography
Roman Arkadyevich Abramovich is today one of the most famous Russian entrepreneurs, whose success took place not only in the business sphere, but also in social life.
This is a person who knows how to create events that invariably attract the interest of both journalists and ordinary people.
The future billionaire's childhood was not easy: at the age of four, Roman was left an orphan.
His mother died when the boy was a year old.
And three years later, father Arkady Nakhimovich Abramovich died at a construction site as a result of an accident.
After this tragic event, Roman is taken up by his uncle Leib, who worked as the head of the working supply of the forest industry in the city of Ukhta.
Most of our hero's childhood was spent in this city.
In 1974, the boy moved to Moscow, where he lives with his second uncle Abram Abramovich.
After graduating from the 232 school, Roman Abramovich goes to the army, where he finishes his service with the rank of an ordinary air defense officer.
Returning two years later back to Ukhta, Roman enters the forestry faculty at the local industrial institute.
Here, the future entrepreneur does not show a noticeable interest in studying, but already at that time he discovers brilliant organizational skills.
Abramovich never received a higher education.
Roman Abramovich: business Since the end of the 80s, Roman Abramovich has been starting an entrepreneurial activity.
As the first direction, a young businessman acquires his own production enterprise the Uyut cooperative, which makes polymer toys.
Abramovich's partners in this cooperative later became part of the management of Sibneft.
The next stage for our hero is intermediary and trading operations.
After a while, the sphere of interests switches to oil trading.
His circle of acquaintances was replenished with a significant number of influential people.
At that time, Roman communicates with Boris Berezovsky, and also maintains close relations with the family of Boris Yeltsin.
Subsequently, thanks to these connections, he managed to become the owner of the Sibneft company.
In the early 90s, Roman became the founder of several companies.
Later, he became the head of the AVK enterprise, which carried out intermediary operations in the oil market.
The first scandal involving Roman Abramovich also dates back to this time — in 1992, he was taken into custody on suspicion of stealing diesel fuel in the amount of 4 million rubles.
In the mid 90s, Roman Abramovich was working on the creation of a large vertically integrated oil corporation.
In the spring of 1998, an attempt was made to merge Sibneft and Yukos, but this idea was not crowned with success due to the fact that the owners could not agree among themselves.
The same year also refers to the rupture of Abramovich's relations with Boris Berezovsky.
The reason for this was the emerging business and political differences.
In 1998, Roman Abramovich was first mentioned in the media.
Until that time, he managed to stay in the shadows so successfully that no one even knew what he looked like.
Everything changed when it became known to the press that he was a confidant of President Boris Yeltsin, paid for the expenses of his daughter and son in law, and also financed Yeltsin's election campaign in 1996.
By December 1999, Roman Abramovich's capital was estimated at $ 14 billion.
Among the major projects of the businessman of the early 2000s, the creation of the company "Russian Aluminum" together with Oleg Deripaska stands out.
In addition, Roman Abramovich bought out the shares of ORT that belonged to Berezovsky and sold them to Sberbank.
The management of Sibneft is also buying out a controlling stake in Aeroflot.
Roman Abramovich: "Chelsea" In 2003, the oligarch carries out a deal that brought him, in addition to profit, wide popularity in society.
Abramovich buys out the British football club Chelsea, which was on the verge of ruin at that time.
After the club's debts have been repaid, Roman Abramovich undertakes to update the club's composition.
The conclusion of multimillion dollar contracts with the most prestigious football players is widely publicized in the Russian and British media.
According to rough estimates, the businessman invested about 150 million pounds in the development of the club, which caused a flood of criticism in the domestic press related to the fact that Abramovich is developing foreign sports.
According to rumors, before the purchase of Chelsea, the oligarch made attempts to acquire the CSKA club, but the deal was canceled.
Thanks to the investment, Abramovich's club Chelsea won the UEFA championship for the first time in its history, where it beat the German Bayern Munich in a penalty shootout.
The businessman also paid attention to domestic sports — in April 2006, an outstanding Dutch football player Guus Hiddink was invited to the post of head coach of the Russian national football team.
The initiator of this was Roman Abramovich.
The foundation "National Football Academy" created by him pays the fees and transportation costs of the coaching staff of the Russian national team.
Roman Abramovich: Fortune Since 2009, Roman Abramovich has been ranked 51st in the list of the richest people on the planet, published by Forbes magazine.
In Russia, Abramovich's condition is in second place after Mikhail Prokhorov.
According to the results of 2015, the capital of Roman Abramovich is estimated at $ 9.1 billion.
The businessman owns villas in the UK, France and Russia.
The oligarch also owns two yachts, each of which is equipped with platforms for helicopters.
The famous yacht of Abraomovich "Eclipse" is estimated at 340 million euros, reaches 170 meters in length, is equipped with a modern anti missile warning system and a small submarine that can dive to a depth of about 50 meters.
In the manufacture of the yacht, valuable types of wood, bulletproof glass and side trim were used.
The oligarch owns two armored limousines, a collection of sports cars, including "Ferrari FXX ""Bugatti Veyron".
In addition, the businessman purchased two personal aircraft a Boeing 767 worth 56 million pounds, converted according to the wishes of the entrepreneur, and an Airbus A340 with an increased take off weight (version 313X), which he bought in 2008.
For his contribution to the social and economic development of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Roman Abramovich was awarded the Order of Honor in 2006.
Roman Abramovich: personal life The billionaire was officially married twice.
His first wife, Olga Lysova, was originally from Astrakhan.
Roman Abramovich's second wife Irina Malandina is a former flight attendant.
In this marriage, the couple had five children — three daughters and two sons.
In 2007, Roman filed for divorce in the Chukotka District Court.
The former spouses have successfully settled all the formalities related to the division of property and the future fate of their children.
At the moment, Roman Abramovich lives with his common law wife, designer Daria Zhukova.
The couple has two children Aaron and Leia.
