Who is the new ‘richest man in the world’? Bernard Arnault overtakes Elon Musk

Dec 15 2022

Twitter and Tesla boss Elon Musk has officially lost the throne of ‘richest man in the world’ to Bernard Arnault, chairman of luxury group LVMH… but how much do we know about Arnault?

If you didn’t know already, LVMH is a French holding multinational corporation and conglomerate which is home to some of the finest luxury brands in the world including Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Dom Pérignon, Moët & Chandon and Tiffany & Co., amongst many others.

73-year-old Arnault’s net worth is currently listed at a cool $187.3 billion (€174.4 bn) on Forbes’ billionaires list, as his luxury goods empire continues to grow around the world. His rise to the top comes as a result of 51-year-old Musk’s net worth dropping by $4.5 billion after the tech boss made a number of tricky moves in relation to his acquisition of social media platform Twitter.

Not a stranger to the rich-list’s top spot, luxury tycoon Arnault keeps a relatively low profile, shifting from construction to real estate before eventually taking over fashion & luxury. His empire eventually grew to cater to some of the wealthiest people in the world, with over 60 prestigious subsidiaries making part of LVMH.

espite this, Musk still remains in second place with a $174 billion fortune, with Indian industrialist Guatam Adani in third with $133 billion and Amazon boss Jeff Bezos in fourth with $114.8 billion.

Rumour mill runs wild as Cristiano Ronaldo returns to Real Madrid training camp

Dec 15 2022

After an extremely emotional exit from the Qatar World Cup, Portuguese star and free agent Cristiano Ronaldo has returned to Real Madrid’s training camp.

Pérez reportedly green-lit Ronaldo’s return stating “Of course, this is your home”, after CR7’s turbulent exit from English side Manchester United.

In between his United exit and Real Madrid training camp spotting, Ronaldo put on a performance with Portugal’s national team in Qatar for what was most probably his last World Cup appearance. Cristiano was last seen leaving the Al Thumama Stadium in tears after Portugal were eliminated by dark horse Morocco.

His nine-year stint at the Bernabeu not only cemented his status as a football legend but also contributed to a then world-record deal of £80 million from Manchester United. During his time at Real Madrid, Ronaldo won two LaLiga titles, four Champions Leagues, and four of his five Ballon d’Ors, making him a hot prospect for an eventual return to the Spanish side.

Since Ronaldo’s United exit, speculation has run rampant on who Ronaldo will spend the last few years of his footballing career with, with rumours including Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr and London’s own Chelsea F.C., amongst others.

Will Ronaldo actually return to Real Madrid?

“I have just had a meeting with James Gunn and Peter Safran and it’s sad news, everyone. I will, after all, not be returning as Superman”, Cavill stated in a lengthy post on Wednesday.

The British actor’s shock announcement comes ahead of some major changes to the DC Universe after Guardians of The Galaxy director James Gunn took helm of the entertainment brand.

With the spot for The Last Son of Krypton freshly-available, we believe that there are a few Maltese talents who could be a fitting replacement. Take a look and let us know what you think!
