Ingvar Kamprad, founder and former chief executive of home furnishings giant IKEA,
is a notorious tightwad who drives a second-hand Volvo. His house in
Lausanne, Switzerland, though hidden behind a high hedge, is said to be
surprisingly unremarkable. He does indulge in winemaking at his small
vineyard in Provence, but has been known to complain that it’s an
expensive hobby.
