Scot Young Wiki Biography

Born Scot Gordon Young on the 10th January 1962 in Dundee, Scotland, he was a businessman, who came to prominence as a property developer, but his career and ventures have been left uncovered even after his death in 2014.

Have you ever wondered how rich Scot Young was, at the time of his death? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Young’s net worth was as high as $10 million, earned through his successful career as a property developer. During his career, it was believed that at one time Scot had $2 billion in off-shore accounts.

Scot Young Net Worth $10 Million

Scot was the son of a professional soccer player Duncan Young, who played for Dundee United, and his wife Betsy. Scot didn’t have much luck during his childhood living in a tenement at 8 Clepington Street, located in the Stobswell area of Dundee. Nothing else is known of his upbringing and education.

However, he was on the rise in the ‘80s, making a name for himself in the property development industry, and later with the help of his father-in-law apparently reached $2 billion in net worth, although his enterprises and the amount of his supposed wealth were never acknowledged by the media, and have been left in a shroud of mystery until the present day. Later, Scot told the press and subsequently his lawyers that he had lost the money due to a failed property development deal in Moscow, Russia. Scot was then often spoken of and connected to the Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky, who was exiled from Russia, since he was opposing Putin’s reign. Unsubstantiated rumours suggested that Young had numerous off-shore bank accounts, in places such as Monaco and the British Virgin Islands as well as in Moscow.

Regarding his personal life, Scot was married to Michelle Danique Orwell from 1995 until 2013, though Michelle filed for divorce in 2006; the couple had two children together. He and Michelle had a tough break-up, and their divorce process lasted for a bit less than eight years. Following 65 court hearings, it was decided by the court that Scot has to pay Michelle £20 million, however, until Scot’s death, Michelle claimed that she hadn’t receive a single pound from the settlement.

Three years after his wife filed for divorce, Scot started a relationship with fashion entrepreneur and retired model, Noelle Reno. The dramatic divorce process left a mark on Scot’s mental health, and he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. He called Noelle just before he jumped out the window, saying to her through telephone “I’m going to jump out of the window. Stay on the phone, you will hear me.” He jumped out of the fourth-floor window and fell onto the railings at 33 Montagu Square, Marylebone London, and died on the spot. The police investigation was apparently rather cursory, and his supposed background dealings and financial situation remain unexposed, that is, if there is anything to expose.
