The businessman locked a Ukrainian woman in his house and only after a few months she confessed her love to him.
British millionaire, ex-manager of the Wonga credit firm Haakon Overly fell in love with 39-year-old Ukrainian Maria Polonchuk, who moved to the UK because of the war in Ukraine and settled in his mansion. The Daily Mail writes about it.
A 52-year-old man left his 46-year-old wife and school-aged children, as well as a luxurious mansion in Surrey for three and a half million dollars, to live in our country. At the same time, the media wrote that he lobbied the government to help refugees transport from Ukraine to the UK.
It is known that Overly is a native of Norway, who studied mathematics at the University of Oslo, and also has a degree in economics from the University of Durham. He cashed in on the early years of the dot-com boom by founding Self Trade, an online stockbroker, in 1997.
The company was sold in 2000 for more than a billion dollars. Overly also worked at JP Morgan and as an investment banker at ING Barings. A few years after joining Wonga, he founded Dawn Capital, which bills itself as Europe’s largest dedicated investor in business software.
Recall that the Polish authorities abolished the income tax, which was applied to Ukrainian refugees who worked remotely.
