Ozol’s Suicide Thoughts: Millionaire Breaks 17-Year Silence

A deal worth 17.5 million euros is collapsing

“If someone says that there is no happiness in money, they simply do not know where to shop,” says Aldis Ozols, a celebrity of the fat years, laughing. At the end of December, he came to Latvia for a short time to present the book he had written in English Lose millions, win life. In it, he openly told how he became a millionaire from a rural shepherd who warmed his feet in warm cow dung. In 2008, he was hit hard by the crash in the real estate market. “My peak moment was a deal for 17.5 million euros in 2008, which was already concluded, all that remained was to receive the money. I went to India to thank all the gods, and then everything suddenly changed overnight,” recalls Aldis.
