Ryanair boss Michael O'Leary has joined the billionaire's club for the first time, according to the new Sunday Independent Rich List 2016
Including O'Leary there are now 14 Irish billionaires - double the number of just five years ago - according to the list of Ireland's 300 wealthiest people.
Ryanair's share price has risen fivefold in the last couple of years as O'Leary manages to fill even more of his planes by making the airline a little friendlier and customer-focused.
It's a potent sign that the post-recovery era has been very, very good for some individuals.
