BRITAIN IRELAND SCOTLAND YOUNG PEOPLE WOMEN Simon Halabi RESULTS 2006 Ranking Worth Industry 18= £2,000m Property Halabi’s latest venture, the PM Club, is set to provide exclusive playing fields for the world’s rich and famous. The lavish “six-star” members’ club will have one foot in the city – at the old In and Out Club in London’s Piccadilly — and one in the countryside at Mentmore Towers in Buckinghamshire, above, the setting for the latest Batman film. With full fees of £250,000 for 30 years’ membership, do not expect any old riffraff. Syrian-born Halabi, 47, has settled his dispute with his two partners in the “Shard of Glass” tower at London Bridge, and is now leading the project. He said of his wealth: “Money is generated by making money, and that has really been my great success.” He lives in the south of France, but also has homes in Mayfair and Monaco. The tycoon unwinds by playing tennis, going skiing, horse riding and sailing. A revaluation of his property portfolio and his shareholding in the “Shard of Glass” take Halabi to £2 billion.
