British printing magnate and philanthropist, Lord Gavron, has a net worth of $15 million. A Labour peer, Gavron chairs the Folio Society, a publisher. Now retired from the St Ives printing operation that he built up, he made about £29 million from share sales up to 1998. He is no longer listed as a St Ives shareholder, he will have made at least £5 million by selling his remaining shares. The Folio Society saw its 2010 profit double to more than £2 million on £24.8 million sales. It should be worth £20 million according to the magazine. In all, with other assets and property, Sunday Times estimated Gavron should be worth £55 million after huge charitable giving.
