Zara老板取代巴菲特成世界第三首富

Amancio Ortega, left, has knocked renowned investor Warren Buffett, right, of his spot as the world's richest man after growing his fortune by £1m in a single day

Fashion tycoon Amancio Ortega, owner of clothing chain Zara, has toppled Warren Buffett in the place the world's third richest man, with a fortune of £30billion.

The 76-year-old Spaniard bumped the Oracle of Omaha off the podium after shares in his retail giant Inditex gained 3.8 percent yesterday to close at a record high, pushing his net worth up by around £1billion.

The news of the tycoon's fortune comes as Spain tries to cope with an unemployment level of nearly 20 percent and a beleaguered government which seems just days from asking for an European bailout.

With a fortune estimated now at £29.7billion, Mr Ortega narrowly pushes philanthropist Mr Buffett, chairman of Berkshire Hathaway, who is worth an estimated £29.1billion, off third place.

Despite their enormous wealth, each of them would have to nearly double their personal wealth to take Mexican telecoms tycoon Carlos Slim's crown as the world's richest man.

Bloomberg Billionaires Index today estimated Mr Slim's net worth at £47.3billion. Microsoft founder Bill Gates sits comfortably in second place with £40billion.

But if Mr Ortega's wealth continues to grow, it may not be long before he's in contention for the top two spots.

His wealth has surged by 32 percent this year alone, despite a deep recession in his native Spain, where the government is resisting pressure to ask for a bailout from the European Central Bank.

That has been based on thephenomenal success of his company, which has grown its profits for 12 straight quarters after moving into emerging markets and reducing its dependence on Spain, where unemployment is above 20 percent.

The son of a railway worker, Mr Ortega was born in Busdongo de Arbás, León, and lived his childhood in León. Starting his career as a gofer in various shirt stores in La Coru?a, Galicia, in 1972 he founded Confecciones Goa (his initials in reverse), which made bathrobes.

In 1975 he opened the first store in what would grow into the enormously popular chain of fashion stores called Zara.

Despite his great wealth - or perhaps because of it - Mr Ortega lives in a discreet apartment in La Coruna and is said to prefer to keep a very low profile.

Zara服裝連鎖店老總、時(shí)尚教主阿曼西奧?奧特加取代沃倫?巴菲特成為世界第三首富,身家達(dá)300億英鎊。

昨天,零售業(yè)巨頭Inditex集團(tuán)的股票上漲了3.8%, 其收盤(pán)價(jià)創(chuàng)歷史新高,使得這位76歲的西班牙人財(cái)富凈增約10億英鎊,將“奧馬哈先知”巴菲特趕下了第三位寶座。

消息傳來(lái)時(shí),西班牙正竭力應(yīng)對(duì)國(guó)內(nèi)高達(dá)20%的失業(yè)率,而備受攻擊的西班牙政府似乎離向歐盟請(qǐng)求緊急援助的日子也不遠(yuǎn)了。

據(jù)估計(jì)奧特加目前的財(cái)富約有297億英鎊,以微弱優(yōu)勢(shì)將資產(chǎn)291億英鎊的慈善家巴菲特?cái)D出前三位。巴菲特現(xiàn)任伯克希爾?哈撒韋保險(xiǎn)公司總裁。

不過(guò)盡管兩人都擁有巨額財(cái)富,但要想坐上墨西哥電信巨頭卡洛斯?斯林姆世界首富的寶座,還得把目前的個(gè)人財(cái)富翻倍才行。

據(jù)彭博億萬(wàn)富翁指數(shù)今日估算,斯林姆的凈資產(chǎn)達(dá)473億英鎊,微軟創(chuàng)始人比爾?蓋茨則以400億英鎊的身家穩(wěn)坐第二首富寶座。

但如果奧特加的財(cái)富持續(xù)增長(zhǎng),也許要不了多久就能與以上兩大巨頭分庭抗禮。

只今年一年,奧特加的財(cái)富就瘋長(zhǎng)了32%,而此時(shí)他的祖國(guó)西班牙還處于深度危機(jī)之中。西班牙政府正在極力頂住壓力,以免向歐洲央行尋求緊急援助。

奧特加的財(cái)富增長(zhǎng)源于他的公司的巨大成功。Zara在挺進(jìn)新興市場(chǎng)后,連續(xù)12個(gè)季度盈利,逐步減少對(duì)失業(yè)率高達(dá)20%的西班牙國(guó)內(nèi)市場(chǎng)的依賴(lài)。

奧特加是一名鐵路工人的兒子,他在里昂的布斯東果-德-阿巴斯出生,并在那里度過(guò)了童年。他的第一份工作是襯衫店里打雜的小職員,他在加西利亞區(qū)拉科魯尼亞省的好幾家襯衫店里都打過(guò)工。1972年,他創(chuàng)辦了Confecciones Goa公司(Goa就是他姓名首字母縮寫(xiě)反向排列而成),主要制作睡袍。

1975年,他開(kāi)了第一家專(zhuān)賣(mài)店,正是這家店后來(lái)成長(zhǎng)為了極為流行的時(shí)裝連鎖店Zara。

盡管奧特加擁有巨額財(cái)富——或許正因如此——他住在拉科魯尼亞一幢不起眼的公寓里,據(jù)說(shuō)他更喜歡低調(diào)行事。
