In fact, as many as 74 billionaires are proliferating in Moscow, and their wealth in the past year has increased by a total of $50 billion. Since 2024, the number of resident billionaires has risen by as many as 12, and among the most prominent names are Vagit Alekperov, the richest man in Moscow, and Vladimir Melnikov.
Hong Kong: the air of war blows here too, but so does the air of money apparently
