7. He is the Founder Of Several Companies
The trading gold business was working so well that he decided to found his own gold mining company. TVX Gold was the first company he founded in 1980.
A little detail: the X in the name is supposed to signify “multiplication” as in multiplication of wealth.
After the success of that company and because all of the things that were going great he decided to found some others.
Three years later he found EBX the umbrella under which he would found all his other companies.
After this one it all went smooth and soon he had five companies, all coming from the EBX Group.
