Times is tough. Christian Siva-Jothy, a former Goldman trader based in
London, is putting his Scottish isle on the market for $4.6 million, according
to The Daily Mail.
The island is named Eilean Righ in Gaelic, which means
"King's Island," and is approximately .33 square miles in land area.
It's off the Northeastern coast of Scotland, located in Lake Craignish. The island itself comes well furnished, with
a four-bedroom house, a helicopter hangar, a boathouse and a jetty. Siva-Jothy
owned 3 planes and used to fly them from the island to London for work, the
Daily Mail reported.
Siva-Jothy was once a legendary trader in the City, and
started his own hedge fund SemperMacro after leaving the firm in 2004. But he
closed the $200 million fund last year after he lost his edge..
A $4.6 million sale could certainly help him with his
finances.
