I Am a Nobleman in England

For a long time, people have been very curious about the lives of contemporary aristocrats, and they have also seen the rich and willful British aristocrats from the few words reported by various media. It is a rare group of aristocrats who have retained the legacy of the past until today. Tea parties, dances, There are a lot of servants, and even the daily life is full of luxury, which is enviable and jealous, but at the same time, it is unavoidable to wonder: where does their money come from? Wouldn't it be a waste of time to go on "willful" like this?

"Everyone thinks I'm still walking around in my robes and cap, looking out over my vast fields and shooting down a few pheasants from time to time... However, the truth is, I have to worry about the cost of repairing the castle every year , Racking my brains for the sustainability of the farm, I think not only about preserving value, but also about increasing value. Because I don’t want to squander all my assets by accident, and even have to beg for a living...”

As a representative of the younger generation of aristocrats, Arthur's frank words in the interview have aroused widespread concern in the British society, and at the same time revealed a true corner of the mysterious life of modern aristocrats to the world.

Showing the plight of the so-called aristocrats in modern times, let people understand that the so-called hereditary aristocracy is only created by time, the privileges of the aristocracy are no longer, and family background is no longer so important. The reality that individual talents matter more than titles.

"Glory belongs to the ancestors, and you have to walk your own path..."

In the bedroom in Buckingham Palace, the old lady was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, lying on the bed, frowning slightly, looking at the newspaper in her hand, and a delicate English breakfast was served on a bright silver tray beside her.

"It's just a bit too high-profile, almost all the reports about him these days."

"Being able to wake up, inherit such a large family business, bear the pressure that he shouldn't have at his age, and let himself grow rapidly while keeping the family business. It is very commendable."

As the housekeeper who takes care of the old lady, he is naturally aware of the old lady's continuous attention to the young Earl Boleyn. He has also been paying attention to the fact that the Earl Boleyn has become a popular figure recently. After all, the old lady is interested. The people and things are what he, the housekeeper, needs to pay attention to and understand.

"It is especially shocking that he was able to become a billionaire by investment at this age. This is really a bit of a legend. His changes and achievements during this period are undoubtedly a very inspirational role model. People from aristocratic families often can’t bear hardships, they are content with pleasure, and their impression of leisure and work is greatly changed.”

"Hehe." The old lady smiled softly, "It says that the tableware in Boleyn Castle has remained the same for hundreds of years. Etiquette. No wonder he was able to write in such detail the aristocratic etiquette of that era, maybe, if you find a chance, you should go and have a look..."

"It is the honor of the Boleyn family that His Majesty has such an intention.

"Hearing what the old lady said, the room steward couldn't help but his eyes lit up slightly, and said with a smile.

"Hehe." The old lady chuckled again, folded the newspaper in her hand, put it aside, and began to enjoy her breakfast.

At the same time, Earl Arthur, who was also eating breakfast, was naturally very happy and satisfied with the hot topics he caused and the overwhelming reports in the newspapers, and was happy for the success of his hype.

When he turned to the financial page and saw the news that 'the Brown government sold the Channel Tunnel to pay off its debts', while he was heartbroken, he realized once again how much money he had was not enough.

Sell ​​what you can sell, and convert assets into money to live on—this is a big thing that Britain is busy at the moment.

The British government has been under the pressure of the economic crisis, and Prime Minister Brown hesitated to cut government spending, because government spending is an important means to stimulate economic recovery. It is impossible to reduce expenditure, and to increase income is to consider the direction. As a person who lives by votes, Brown certainly does not dare to increase taxes, so the British government has only one option if it wants to survive, which is to sell iron.

The first batch of zf assets that will be sold this time include a 33% stake in the European Enrichment Uranium Company, the state-owned gaming company Tout, the Dartford Toll Bridge across the River Thames in London, connecting England and France Railways in the Channel Tunnel, student loan companies, etc. The assets are estimated to be worth three billion pounds.

And the government is also preparing to sell idle properties in its £220 billion estate when market conditions improve.

Beginning in 1979, the Iron Lady's privatization policy gained momentum in the decades since. From oil exploration and iron and steel, to communications, energy and water supply, industries have been completely transformed into the private sector. It marked a sea change in British politics, a success that was subsequently emulated around the world.

To be honest, Arthur is very jealous when he sees the assets of these monopoly industries. Don’t think that investing in gold can make so much money easily. He also understands the general trend of the future. He can use this to play capital games and earn more money , he was very happy and felt at ease.

On the contrary, Arthur does not want to regard capital games as his main business, but industry is the foundation of long-term development.

Capital is an angel, and capital is also a devil.

Arthur can make money by knowing the general trend, but he is not God, and it is impossible to make a lot of money every time. Besides, he only remembers the content of the international financial market. What happens when the advantages are exhausted?

Well, by then his personal wealth should be quite considerable, but he can't just hang around with money and wait to die, right?

Capital games, in Arthur’s eyes, are rootless duckweeds. They may be brilliant for a while, but they will not be brilliant forever. No matter which country or under which rules, industries shoulder the heavy responsibility of value creation and are the cornerstone of wealth creation.

On this point, Arthur highly respects the opinion of the richest man in HUA, that is, "When doing business, you must remember that you always have a product in your hand, and you can make money even if the sky falls."

To be honest, Arthur has always wanted to buy himself an iron rice bowl after he has enough first pot of gold, so that even if the sky falls, he can lay down a profitable business to support his future and The future of the family is underpinned.

Although there are no near-term worries, there must be long-term concerns.

Undoubtedly, the assets that the Brown ZF wants to sell may not be the most profitable assets, but they are monopoly assets, gaming companies, toll bridges, submarine tunnel railways, shares in enriched uranium companies, student loan companies, which one is not a previous life? A deal you can't even think of?

"When the money is used, there will be less hatred!"

In the study, Arthur leaned on the boss's chair, and sighed with emotion that 240 million US dollars was definitely a wealth that he never dared to dream of in his previous life, but now he really felt that it was too little, and it was only worth converting it into pounds. It is more than 150 million pounds.

However, it cost 36 million pounds to buy the Southampton club. Although he is a billionaire, he is very young, but his wealth should be the least.

It seems that in the short term, I can only rely on capital games to increase my worth. In addition to continuing to bet on gold, high-quality stocks such as Amazon, Wal-Mart, Google, and Netflix in the United States are also to be bought.

Since you can't grasp the success or failure of the details, then grasp the general trend, cast a wide net, catch more fish, and choose the best ones!

Thinking of this, the previous arrogance and complacency caused by becoming a billionaire was completely suppressed. He lit a cigar, calmed down his mood and restless thoughts, and continued to work as a keyboard worker. draft.

The current worth is not when he can let himself go freely. If he doesn't get a billion or two billion, how can he have the confidence to spread all over the world?
