One of the most famous names in the elite royal circle of Abu Dhabi and who was recently spotted at the Grand prix is a certain crypto currency billionaire and owner of Binance, Changpeng Zhao. He's known as CZ to cryptophiles and is literally the only person the world is talking about, when it comes to personal wealth. His net worth is $96 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index and that puts him ahead of Asia's richest person, Mukesh Ambani, Mark Zuckerberg and Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin as well. This wealth estimate doesn’t include his crypto holdings. © Twitter Binance is banished from China, where it was actually founded and the company has been at the heart of controversies ever since. It generated at least $20 billion of revenue last year. CZ was born in China and at the age of 12, he moved to Canada with his parents. After his father lost his job, Zhao worked at many odd jobs to make ends meet, including flipping burgers at McDonalds. He then went on to study Computer science at University level, and in 2005, he founded a company which catered as the fasting trading system for brokers. © Twitter Zhao entered the block chain and cryptocurrency world in 2013, even before the world actually got familiar with it. He founded Binance in 2017 and quickly climbed the money ranking chart in no time. He is currently the 11th richest person in the world. Source: NDTV View the full article

While economists warn us of an imminent recession that is going to hit us and leave a lot of us unemployed soon, there are people out there who are, surprisingly, majorly benefitting economically from this lockdown. Case in point, Radhakishan Damani an Indian businessman who controls Avenue Supermarts Ltd. © Reuters While the stocks are on an all-time low, this man's net worth has surged amidst the coronavirus lockdown. The net worth of Mr Damani surged almost 11% this year to $10.7 billion and is still on the rise. This development has singled him out as the billionaire with most gains among the 12 richest Indians, whose wealth is tracked by the Bloomberg Billionaires Index. © Reuters Shares of Avenue Supermarts, which are the primary contributors to almost all of the wealth that makes up for Damaniâs net worth, have advanced a whopping 24% this year. This can be attributed to the fact that âPeople have been buying in panic and hoarding during the lockdown that drove the sales, making the companyâs share a perfect hedge amid rout,â Arun Kejriwal, director at Kris, an investment advisory firm in Mumbai told a leading publication. âTheir unique no-frills model and also choosing to operate from locations outside malls will help them to tide over the situation.â © Reuters Interestingly, his net-worth surge comes at a time when stocks have fallen to about a quarter of the net worth of his billionaire fellows Mukesh Ambani and Uday Kotak. Damaniâs supermarket chain, known for its thrifty cost structure, majorly profited from the panic hoarding of household essentials after India decided to place its 1.3 billion people under a three-week lockdown last month. © Reuters Cyrus Poonawalla, who founded the vaccine manufacturer-- Serum Institute of India, was the only other Indian businessman on the list of the lucky 12 whose wealth rose contrary to global economic trends in 2020. Poonawalla saw his net worth rise by 2.6% to $8.9 billion this year, according to the Billionaires Index. View the full article

After the demise of fashion giant Karl Lagerfeld, all eyes are on his cat. The cat, a red-point Birman named 'Choupette', is all set to inherit a part of the designer's multi-million dollar fortune, that will probably make her the richest cat in the world. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Choupette Lagerfeld (@choupettesdiary) on Jul 11, 2018 at 5:41pm PDT Karl Lagerfeld, fashion visionary and the Creative Director of Chanel, passed away on 19th February, and his feline companion Choupette, whom he referred to as the heiress of his fortune, will inherit a part of it. Lagerfeld's net worth is an estimated 195 million dollars. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Choupette Lagerfeld (@choupettesdiary) on Jun 18, 2017 at 10:10am PDT Not that Choupette needs the money, because she already lives an extremely lavish life and also is sort of a social media celebrity herself, with thousands of followers on Instagram and Twitter. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Choupette Lagerfeld (@choupettesdiary) on Mar 1, 2017 at 9:11am PST Choupette already has earned more than 3 million dollars herself, by doing high end modelling gigs. Depending on how much more money she inherits, she might overtake 'Blackie' as the richest pussycat in the world. (The record for being the richest cat in the world is currently held by a cat named Blackie, who inherited 7 million pounds from his British owner in 1988.)

LONDON: Britain's super-rich "kept calm and carried on making billions" despite worries about Brexit, according to The Sunday Times newspaper's Rich List for 2017, with more billionaires living in the country than ever before. In the past 12 months, the total wealth of Britain's richest 1,000 individuals and families surged 14 percent to £658 billion ($854 billion, 777 billion euros), the paper said. It said that there are now more UK-based billionaires than ever before, at 134. Industrialist brothers Sri and Gopi Hinduja topped the list with a combined wealth of £16.2 billion, up £3.2 billion over the previous year. "While many of us worried about the outcome of the EU referendum, many of Britain's richest people just kept calm and carried on making billions," said the list compiler, Robert Watts. "We expected to see a chilling effect in the run-up to the EU referendum, but that simply did not materialise." Britain voted in June 2016 to leave the EU after more than four decades of membership in a referendum that sent shockwaves across Europe. Despite gloomy forecasts ahead of the referendum, the UK economy proved resilient in the last six months of 2016 with a weaker pound and record low interest rates helping to boost exports and investor confidence. "A buoyant stock market usually drives the wealth of Rich Listers higher, and since last June equities have soared," Watts said. London remains the city with the most billionaires at 86, up nine over the previous year. Adele joins list Overall, 19 people increased their wealth by £1 billion or more in a year. Publicity-shy brothers David and Simon Reuben, who topped the year last year, fell down two places despite adding £900 million to their £14 billion fortune. Among the 58 newcomers -- a minimum of £110 million is now required to make the list compared to just £15 million in 1997 -- are famous names including chart topper Adele. The singer, who released her third studio album "25" and went on a world tour in 2016, is now worth £125 million, making her the sixth richest person under 30. Football player Zlatan Ibrahimovic and "Fifty Shades of Grey" author EL James also made the cut for the first time. Other well-known names include Paul McCartney (£780 million), Elton John (£290 million), Lewis Hamilton (£131 million), and David and Victoria Beckham who have a combined wealth of £300 million. "Harry Potter" creator J.K. Rowling continued to work her magic, adding £50 million to bring her estimated fortune to £650 million. Queen Elizabeth II, who turned 91 in April, slipped 10 places to become the 329th richest person in her kingdom, with a wealth of £360 million. The list does not count the totality of the income and assets from the Crown Estate -- the collection of lands and holdings belonging to the monarch but controlled by an independent board -- whose property portfolio alone is now worth £12 billion. Her fortune is therefore easily dwarfed by the Duke of Westminster's. At just 26 the Duke, one of Prince George's godfathers once dubbed "the world's most eligible bachelor is at the head of a £9.5 billion empire.

This is an entry about our IPS Community Suite 4.2 release. You are probably already familiar with our content embedding feature in IPS Community Suite. When a link to content in the community is pasted into the editor (e.g. a topic, or a post, or a gallery image, etc.) it is automatically expanded into a preview of the content, usually with an accompanying image, allowing users to click through to that content if they are interested. An embedded Gallery image in IPS Community Suite 4.1 While it has proved a useful feature to members, each embed used essentially the same structure - a small thumbnail on the left, a title, and a few lines of text. This works fine for topics, but isn't ideal for other kinds of rich content that might be posted. In IPS Community Suite 4.2, we greatly improved upon our embedding handling, giving every type of content within every application its own customized embed style, allowing that content to be displayed however works best. This means larger high-res previews of Gallery images, a button to download a file right from the embed for Downloads files, showing a map for Calendar events, and so on. We worked to keep a consistent overall style between apps, but allow each to display its own relevant information. For users, things will work exactly as they do now - they simply paste a link to content, and it will continue to expand automatically. The changes are also backwards compatible. Any existing embeds in your community will automatically show the new styling you see below - no rebuilding necessary. So with that in mind, let's take a look what the new embeds look like! I won't show every single embed here because there's a huge number, but I'll try and give you a feel for how we approached the embed styles for each app. Gallery Image Comment on a Gallery Image Gallery Album Forum Topic Downloads File Review on a Downloads File Calendar Event Comment on a Calendar Event Commerce Product Record from a Pages database I hope that gives you a good overview of what to expect when your users try out the new embeds for themselves.
