Leftist Anti austerity party wins big in Greece

[Amishman]

82. A bandaid at best

Greece does not have a robust crust of the ultra wealthy. The few individuals wealthy enough to make a dent in the Greek debt burden are individuals with strong international roots and are unlikely to have much of their assets where the Greek people can reach.

The total Greek debt is a bit over $400 billion dollars.

The richest Greek citizen is Filaretos Kaltsidis, worth 6.7 billion. He has Russian citizenship as well and most of his wealth is a Russian cement company. His assets would be very difficult to touch

#2 - Jim Davis - $3.2 billion - owner of New Balance. His wealth is also international and would be hard to touch.

#3 Spiros Latsis - $3 billion - much of his assets are EFG Bank Luxembourg

#4 John paul DeJoria $2.4 billion - mining industry, now largely operating out of the UK

See the trend? The richest Greek citizens make their money and keep it outside of Greece.
