Biography

Georg Stumpf was born on September 14, 1972, into the family of Georg Stumpf senior, a wealthy entrepreneur and friend of former Federal Chancellor Franz Vranitzky.
In 1994, at the age of 22, Stumpf founded the Stumpf Group with a startup capital of 1 million shillings provided by his father.
He started his entrepreneurial journey by obtaining a $35,000 loan from his father to kickstart the Stumpf Group.
Georg Stumpf invested in building the Millennium Tower in Vienna, the tallest building in the city, using support from the banking consortium consisting of Creditanstalt and a Commerzbank subsidiary.
In 2003, Stumpf sold the Millennium Tower to the German fund MCP for 145 million euros.
The Millennium Tower, reaching a height of 202 meters, surpassed initial height restrictions, with Stumpf negotiating with authorities to finalize the project's version and obtaining price reductions from construction companies.
Stumpf, along with Austrian entrepreneurs Mirko Kovats and Ronny Pecik, purchased the majority of the OC Oerlikon industrial group in Switzerland in 2005.
After the collapse of Oerlikon during the financial crisis of 2007–2008, Stumpf acquired the Exyte group.
Exyte, based in Stuttgart, Germany, is a high-tech EPC construction firm specializing in semiconductors and is the Stumpf Group's most significant asset.
In November 2022, Exyte announced a minority stake sale to BDT Capital, led by fellow billionaire Byron Trott.
Georg Stumpf enjoys playing golf in his spare time and has won several junior championship titles in Austria.
He grew up playing golf with Karl Ableidinger, who is now his vice chairman at the Stumpf Group.

Georg Stumpf is very wealthy, but what's stopping you from reaching that same level of success? As summarized in our five fundamental rules to wealth building, becoming wealthy in a modern capitalist economy is not complicated. There's actually only three variables:

  1. Your starting capital
  2. Your earnings after expenses
  3. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of your savings

Most people start with zero or very little, so if you weren't born into wealth, don't fret! The majority of the fortunate folks listed in our Grizzly Bulls’ Billionaires Index came from middle class or lower backgrounds. The most distinguishing characteristic of the group is their ability to consistently earn a high CAGR on their savings.

Every billionaire has a unique strategy to achieve high CAGR. For Georg Stumpf, Real Estate and Construction are the primary sources. Whether you choose to invest your savings in your own businesses or the businesses of others is not as important. The salient piece of the puzzle is ensuring that your hard-earned savings are generating sufficient CAGR to reach your long term goals.

Most people simply invest their money in index funds and call it a day. There's nothing wrong with this approach, but it guarantees relative mediocrity. To achieve greatness, you need to invest your money to earn higher than average returns. In the long run, better investors will always finish ahead of better earners.
