Real Estate: Row Over the Luxury Hotels of Berlin's Dentists

Jörg Lindner, an entrepreneur from Düsseldorf, has a passion for flying and often pilots himself on business trips. He and his partner Kai Richter opened their first resort on Ibiza, a 100 million Euro project, with a grand opening featuring a jetpack flyer. The event was attended by celebrities such as Ralf Möller and Dieter Nuhr.
