Wealthy individuals usually evade answers referring to the development of a unique business, working from morning till night, or they say something universal: “happened to be in the right place at the right time". The example of the 87 richest business persons of the Russian Federation with a state of about $1 billion (as of September 9 of the current year) allows to define what strategies they used to achieve super high income. It turned out, enterprising citizens most often used 6 methods to achieve the desired.

The sixth strategy is Marketing.

The last group of wealthy citizens is the smallest and comprises 4 business persons with the total income of $5.3 billion. Their financial status is increasing due to consumer demand: Rustam Tariko's business is based on vodka trade and consumer loans in Russian Standard Bank; Yuri Shefler successfully trades another vodka brand - "Stolichnaya", only in the USA. The brightest representative of this category is Oleg Tinkov, who lost the status of a billionaire due to his bank's shares sliding, but he masterfully owns marketing and successfully sells any product.
