218.* * * Billionaire investor George Soros had a lot to celebrate on Saturday evening: his 82nd birthday and the engagement to his much younger girlfriend, Tamiko Bolton.
亿万富翁、投资家乔治?索罗斯上周六庆祝82岁生日时,宣布将迎娶比自己年轻很多的女友多美子-博尔顿。
Soros and Bolton, who met in the spring of 2008, formally announced their engagement at a party at Soros' summer home in Southampton, New York, attended by a small group of friends and relatives, according to a person familiar with the investor.
索罗斯与博尔顿于2008年春天相识。据与索罗斯相熟人士的消息,二人近日在纽约南安普敦避暑寓所举行生日派对时,向出席的少数亲友公布了订婚喜讯。
Soros proposed to Bolton, 40, a few weeks ago during a weekend visit to the Hamptons, a beachside colony on Long Island frequented by New York's wealthy.
几周前,在某个周末的汉普顿之旅时,索罗斯向40岁的博尔顿求婚。纽约的富豪们经常到海边度假胜地长岛汉普顿游玩。
For Soros, this will be his third marriage and the second for Bolton, who was married briefly in the 1990s. Soros has five children from his previous marriages.
这是索罗斯的第三次婚姻,也是博尔顿的第二次婚姻。博尔顿在上世纪90年代有过一段短暂婚史。索罗斯之前有五名子女。
Last year, Adriana Ferreyr, a former girlfriend of Soros, filed a lawsuit alleging he had reneged on a promise to buy her an apartment. Soros has filed a pending motion to dismiss the suit by the former Brazilian soap opera star.
去年,索罗斯的前女友阿德里安娜?费雷拉控告索罗斯违反承诺,没有送她一套公寓。索罗斯正申请停止诉讼。费雷拉是巴西的一名肥皂剧女星。
Ferreyr's attorney, Robert Hantman, said: "I wish him the best of luck on his marriage, and now that he doesn't need the apartment, hopefully the case can be resolved."
费雷拉的律师罗伯特-亨特曼说:“我祝他婚姻幸福,现在看来他不需要这套公寓了,希望案子能尽快了结。”
Soros, who is an active contributor to politically liberal causes and frequently speaks on world economic events, converted his hedge fund into a family office in 2011 and stopped managing money for outside investors.
索罗斯积极支持政治自由主义,频繁发表有关全球经济事件的言论。他在2011年将旗下对冲基金转作家族基金,也不再为外部投资者进行资金管理。
Soros rose to fame and fortune two decades ago on a now-historic trade, in which he took on the Bank of England and shrewdly wagered on a devaluation of the British pound.
20年前,索罗斯向英格兰银行发起了挑战,精明地押注英镑贬值,攫取了巨额财富,也因此声名大振。这在现今来看也堪称历史上很著名的一次交易行为。
Bolton, who once started an Internet-based dietary supplement business and is now running a web-based yoga education business, has a master's degree in business from the University of Miami.
博尔顿拥有迈阿密大学商科硕士学位,曾在网上销售膳食补充剂,现在经营一家网络瑜伽培训机构。
The engagement ring Soros gave Bolton, according to a person close to him, is a Graff diamond in a platinum setting on a rose gold band.
据索罗斯身边的人传出消息,订婚戒指是一枚格拉夫钻戒,钻石镶在白金戒托上,戒圈为玫瑰金。
