The UK's richest people have defied the double-dip recession to become even richer over the past year, according to the annual Sunday Times Rich List.
The newspaper's research found the combined worth of the country's 1,000 wealthiest people is £414bn, up 4.7%.
It means their joint wealth has passed the level last seen in 2008, before the financial crash, to set a new record.

Good luck to them...provided they pay their fair share of taxes of course.
However I'm not going to subscribe to the idea that all it takes is hard work and faith in yourself. It also takes a hell of a lot of luck to make a fortune from scratch.
