Whats your opinion of Icelandic businessman and media mogul Jon Asgeir Johanneson?
 
(despite his UK business ventures and a trial in New York most of you probably dont know him, but "dunno"/"who" options are boring).

So far the guy has managed to stay out of jail. But maybe his luck is runnning out. He just got 12 months suspended and a fine for tax evasion, but he is facing much more serious charges at the moment http://grapevine.is/Home/ReadArticle/Tycoon-Jon-Asgeir-Johannesson-Guilty-Of-Tax-Evasion.

On the other hand he did put his tiny country on the map and is probably one of the best known Icelanders worldwide Tongue. Also a fairly creative man - at least regarding his business transactions. He is also the closest thing to a media owner of the Berlusconi ilk in Scandinavia. Both in his party style and ability to use his media influence.  



Johannesson and wifey Ingibjorg Palmadottir.
