Tony Blair's fortune to treble to £45million next year

Mirror
"The former PM and wife Cherie are building up a property empire and Mr Blair now plans to maximise his earnings over the next two years. .....His earnings this year alone could hit £15million, on top of the estimated £15million he has raked in since standing aside as PM in 2007. A ­further £15million next year through Mr Blair’s jobs, ­ speeches and expanding property empire would take his estimated family fortune to £45million. ......“Many of Tony and Cherie’s friends now are extremely wealthy and they both enjoy moving in those sort of social circles. But that takes serious cash.” Mr Blair’s millions are paid into a complex network of companies involving up to 12 different bodies – making his exact riches hard to calculate."
