Former
Saga boss Roger De Haan and brother Peter have made it into the top 50
of the 2009 Sunday Times Rich List.

Although the pair's fortune has dropped by £10m since
2008, they are still worth £840m and jumped from 89th to number 49 in
the list.
Over the next 10 years, Folkestone will get a spanking new harbour on a
14-acre site that Roger De Haan, 60, bought a few years ago for £11m.
It is planned to include a marina for 200 yachts.
Roger's wealth derives from the Saga holiday firm that his father set up
after the war, which was sold in 2004 for £1.35 billion.
Brother Peter, 57, runs businesses in wine and marketing that are worth
£120m. Allowing for tax, spending on Folkestone and donations to
charity, the brothers are worth £840m. |
