"The farmer’s son Melker Schörling has made a remarkable journey. He has gradually built an enormous fortune, valued at 55 billion, starting from two empty hands. Nothing has come for free, even though global growth and the stock market have contributed. As recently as 2005, the fortune was valued at “only” 5 billion kronor according to Veckans Affärer 2016."
