Soros, 83, to marry for the third time

NEW YORK: George Soros, the 83-year-old billionaire investor and philanthropist, is set to marry health care and education consultant Tamiko Bolton on Saturday at his estate near New York City.
For Soros, who has a net worth of $20 billion according to Forbes, this will be his third marriage. It will be the second for Bolton.
Three days of festivities will begin Friday with a dinner followed by a reception at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan for a preview of the new exhibition, “Magritte: The Mystery of the Ordinary, 1926-1938” of works by Belgian painter Rene Magritte.
Soros and Bolton, 42, plan to exchange vows in a small ceremony on Saturday morning at the Bedford, New York estate, which Soros bought in 2003 from “Jurassic Park” author Michael Crichton. Kimba Wood, a federal judge, will perform the non-denominational ceremony.
The wedding ceremony will be followed by a reception on Saturday evening with more than 500 guests at an arts center in nearby Katonah.
Guests at the various events include World Bank President Jim Yong Kim and some foreign leaders, including Hendrik Toomas Ilves, president of Estonia; Ellen Johnson Sirleaf, president of Liberia; and Edi Rama, prime minister of Albania.
Also expected to attend are fellow titans of the hedge fund world, Paul Tudor Jones and Julian Robertson.
From the political realm those invited include Minority Leader of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi of California and Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom of California, both Democrats.
Soros, who established one of the first hedge funds in 1969 and is probably best known for his big bet against the British pound in 1992, met Bolton at a dinner party in 2008. Their engagement was announced in August 2012.
