[Albion] Tony Bloom in the Sunday Times 2025 Rich List

[El Presidente]

Well there's the finger in the air method and the accounting method, neither of which are accurate if your accountants are any good

NSC, come for the financial analysis, stay for the best fingering technique.

Exactly, I can think of at least 3-4 clients off the top of my head where their source of wealth statements put their declared (at least) wealth well within the list, who are not featured

It’s a badge of honour to some and I wouldn’t be surprised if there are some who have actively looked to get on and stay on the list at whatever cost to maintain the circles they keep

“Circular” ownership is a red flag

There is no doubt that TB is worth a few £B. The few people I know and have known who are worth a even few million don't know on a regular basis. Even most businesses I have been involved with only have monthly, quarterly overviews and, once a year, a stab at an annual position and a lot of these were regulated.

If he has to fully staff that Family office with enough specialists in order to recalculate all of his properties, businesses, holdings and investments and various other interests on a monthly basis in order to give TB a figure, maybe he's worth even more than a few £B

Even huge corporations annual accounts are out of date by the time they finish calculating them. These figure can change significantly by the hour.

These days you can pretty much use API capability and a good platform to aggregate all the data pretty much instantaneously tbh. The only limiting factor of Private placements such as real estate or Private Equity is the valuation frequency. So you don't even need the full staff of a family office.
TB's privacy and capability make me pretty certain he would do most of this himself.

I work in Wealth Management (sadly) and this type of situation is entirely bread and butter for someone of his means and capabilities.

The fact that NSC's wealthiest poster is not on there proves the list is a SHAMBLES.

As a Patron member, I'm looking forward to Bozza taking NSC public and cashing in my stock options.

I can't imagine Mrs B will be too happy when she finds out he's spaffed a third of his money supporting his football team

We all do that done we

Just seen your location so quite understandable. There was a member of the board that claimed to be the "richest" member and that off the back of Terresa May's disastrous budget had been able hire extra staff Anyway, when the Israel vs Hamas war kicked off there was, understandably, a thread about it. A number of people, including myself, questioned Israel's over heavy handed response. Apparently that made us, and by connection the whole of NSC, antisemitic. He mentioned this in the comments section on the local paper website. He then flounced from here and was duly elected as the Tory candidate for Westdene & Hove Park. I won't name him but he is not the first Tory candidate on here to flounce

Let's not forget his resignation from his candidacy after "a series of offensive [Islamophobic] jokes came to light."

So, also a hypocrit.

But, of course, the good old Tories allowed him back. ****s.

Our squad alone is worth £721m, more if Chelsea wanna buy

Well you say that but, due to the declining funfair/seaside trade there are bargains to be had...
With an eye for a good deal and his nostalgic love of playing on the Piers as a youngster, I would not be surprised if our Tony improvised to bring us a cost cutting monorail from the old steine direct to the Amex....

Keep the Dream alive...

I thought Bozza wanted to remain anonymous.
