As part of our Meet The Billionaires series, James Montague details the history of Chelsea Football Club owner, Roman Abramovich. While many of Russia's oligarchs lost their wealth when Vladimir Putin became the Russian president, Abramovich maintained his. This video explains how he made his fortune, how he kept it, and speculates on why he bought Chelsea, other than for the fact that he was "bored".

Really eye-opening watching this in the wake of Abromovich's exile from Chelsea in 2022.
The book 'Putin's People' also covers this topic well. Another reason why Roman may have bought Chelsea at the time was to divert the bad press associated with Russian cash that had been flowing into London's financial markets. Buying Chelsea distracted the British public from the rest of the illicit money coming into England from Russia.

@@philipcarr6698 All big clubs try to buy players when they are young. Chelsea is not any different. But they have made changes to the youth system itself over the years, and we have had more players coming up the ranks: Chalobah, James, Mount, Abraham... There is Gallagher who is looking good, and not to mention that Chelsea's youth team has consistently done well in competitions over the past few years.
I refuse to believe that Roman bought Chelsea just because he loved football, and wanted to own a team. I mean he could have done that in Russia, and for a fraction of a cost. I also find it hard to believe that Roman wanted fame, since he is such a private person. I think Roman bought Chelsea because he understood the economics involved in football market, and saw the opportunity of owning an asset whose value was going to increase considerably over the next few decades. I think he bought Chelsea over Tottenham because 1. He saw the value of buying a club located in a more affluent part of London. 2. Chelsea were going to go bankrupt thus being a cheaper bargain. 3. Chelsea had qualified to play in the Champions League that year. Since he has purchased Chelsea, Roman is said to have invested $1bn. However if he decides to sell the Club, it is valued to be sold anywhere from 1.8 bn- 2bn. So, Roman has effectively almost doubled his investment in 14 years time. Or he will make a profit of 800m- 1bn, if he decides to sell the club. I think this is good enough reason for why he bought Chelsea. Saying all of that, buying Chelsea was a major gamble. People were talking about Chelsea as if they were going to pull a Leeds United, and end up in the 2nd division in a matter of years. Had you, in 2003, told people that Chelsea were going to be a big a global brand as they are today, people would have laughed you off. Roman understood the value of winning while establishing a new brand, and he wasn't afraid to flush down the cash to win trophies. I think Roman won't spend the way he used to, now that his brand has already been established. Although it will be interesting to see what happens if Chelsea don't win a trophy for a couple of seasons.

Biggus Dickus Well you could be correct in all that however I don't see many owners as passionate as him.

Chelsea are also based in west London and are closer to his other properties than Tottenham

Interesting. I didn't know some (especially early) details so thanks for this.
Your voice is just so soothing. If you talk about history, which bores the hell out of me, I would still listen to it
Best owner ever.
RIP Chelsea FC 2003-2022

Dude this episode was 🔥talk about making money moves. You guys did an amazing job with this piece
Interested in his humble beginnings, a few words in and one wonders about the help along the way. I guess the fall of the Soviet Union and the capitalist carve up of the corpse played a big part, but you know, help is help. Great video, as always, and very interesting. Good work 👍

dangerchef where? I dont see any video regarding the time Chelsea won the title back to back or how the team played? He did a video on The invincibles and ManU's tactics on 07-08.
It was actually Abramovich that went to Yeltsin and recommended Putin, he did the same with Medvedev I think.
