Wait a minute. Look behind the crumbling building in the last photo. Looks like there's a brand-new building in the background. hmm... maybe it's housing for the local officials.

Seen it, also noticed they have the early 90's Lada 2105 parked in front of it. That thing might have done it's first 340tkm in Finland!

London is surely numero uno place for super rich. But if you want to laze around just to enjoy life then nothing like monte carlo, switzerland, cannes,marbella etc.

Once the buck is made better to laze around than to slog all life

Jersey, Channel Islands. Perhaps not super rich but there are some extremely wealthy people there and the property prices are ridiculous. Average house price is about £600,000!

London is by far the hub of the global super rich based on all that I've read on the topic...

If there was any doubt back in 2012:

Things have changed since the last edition of the report. Now London is on top, besting New York City, which fell to fourth place. San Francisco, previously number four, has fallen out of the top 20 entirely. Singapore rises into the top 10, to number three, and Hong Kong is up three spots from 2013, to five. The top 10 also has two new European entrants: Frankfurt has the sixth most ultra-high-net individuals, and Paris has the seventh. Osaka, Beijing, and Zurich round out the top 10.

The dominance of Asian cities illustrates a larger trend. For the first time, Asia overtook North America as the region with the second-largest growth in ultra-high-net individuals. The wealthy in Asia also now hold more money overall than those in North America: $5.9 trillion compared to $5.5 trillion. However, Europe still reigns supreme, with the greatest growth in the number of super-rich and with the wealthiest super-rich overall. Europe’s high-net individuals hold $6.4 trillion.
