Yeah but it's punishing people who work hard to subsidise those who don't, because everyone knows that there is a strong correlation between hard work and earnings you Marxist.

I don't care how much she earns. Let her...

"Ms Coates earned a first-class degree in econometrics"
I did econometrics at MSc level and it's a nightmare. If she's that bright and can develop a hugely successful firm then she can earn whatever she likes.

Wealth is not bad. How many high paid jobs has she created? Loads and they all pay 40% tax and possibly more.

Wealth creators should be encouraged. I applaud her.

If she’s declaring salary and dividends at that level, she’ll end up with about 153m of her salary and 27m of her dividends. She’ll be paying about £133m in tax (in round millions)

We could say that she 'accumulates' wealth.

We could say that she 'redistributes' wealth.

I can't see how she 'creates' wealth. Would you please enlighten me.

I don't believe anyone should be a billionaire. If someone has £1bn I would much prefer them to spend it on improving the world than taking us to the Prem.

To be fair to her she pays her taxes and gives away a fortune, but even so, £9bn is obscene.

I've only looked at the headline and skimmed a bit but if I am correct and she is on the payroll of a betting firm then she doesn't create any "Wealth"

All she "Creates" is "Debt" and misery.

That is pretty much as I see it.

Wealth is created in factories and mines and on the land, not in banks nor accountants' offices nor betting shops.

Mines? In the late 70s I worked in a diamond mine in South Africa I dont recall that resulted in much wealth just debt for those buying the diamonds

Disagree slightly there re banks. Banks serve a purpose, not sure what you mean about accountants either - and if they run at a loss there customers would run at a greater loss.

Betting though - Mmmmmmmmmmm

What I mean is that, in my view, wealth is created by people who make things, mine things, grow stuff etc.

I agree that banks serve a purpose; we all use them and they make our lives more convenient and in some ways they are enablers. But they are consumers of wealth rather than creators of it. Accountants, similarly, serve a purpose but they, too, are consumers of wealth.

It turns out she paid around £130m or so this year.
Last year she put £150m into a foundation
Her firm is domiciled in the UK and pays all it's taxes.
She's created loads of high quality jobs in Stoke, she's not relocated.

This is the type of person we want to attract. Her and Cauldfield are amazing in what they have done

She's earned it, pays her way, and should be given a huge thank-you.

I don't disagree with any of that. It's just from a very loosely regulated industry that is illegal or very restricted in lots of countries because it creates suffering and wrecks lives.

I understand the flip side of the industry.
I doubt there is any industry which has no impact. It's a pragmatic fact. I'd rather someone like her was running that type of firm, she's paying her way.

As they go, notwithstanding the ethics question, she is paying her way. It's the ones who take their profits out of the UK via offshore tax havens that are the problem.

I bet her staff haven't had similar 500%+ pay rises since 2016 though, but there we are.
