| Retirement does not beckon for Roger De Haan, 56, even though he sold Saga, the company started in 1948 by his father in Folkestone, last October in a £1.35 billion deal. He gave £15m to staff and, after debt was stripped out, the De Haan family netted at least £1.1 billion. From his Folkestone base, De Haan has invested £11m in buying his local harbour and reckons his Folkestone Harbour Company can revive the port. His brother Peter, 53, was Saga finance director but now runs his own wine and marketing firms, worth £15m. Allowing for tax and charitable donations, the family is easily worth £1.02 billion. |
