The Croatian island is flooded with mega-rich people, right there are three guys worth $54.2 billion!

The article reports on a gathering of wealthy individuals on the Croatian island of Mljet, highlighting the arrival of Jan Koum, co-founder of WhatsApp, aboard his luxury yacht 'Moonrise.' Koum was accompanied by another yacht, 'Nebula,' and the article notes that he previously hosted Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and media mogul Barry Diller on the island. Other notable yachts include the 'M2 Ribeye' owned by Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, a UAE deputy prime minister and owner of Manchester City FC, and the 'Amalya' yacht, whose owner remains unidentified but is speculated to be either a wealthy Arab sheikh or a Russian billionaire hiding assets due to sanctions. The article also mentions the former Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich’s yacht 'Pelarus,' now owned by Chinese real estate magnate Samuel Tak Lee. The combined net worth of these four individuals is estimated at around $54.2 billion.
