Gianluca Vacchi was born on the 5th August 1967, in Bologna, Italy, and is a businessman, model and DJ, but probably best known to the world as the President of Last Minute Tours, and as director of Tesmec S.p.A., among many other accomplishments and endeavors. His career has been active since the ‘90s, although not always in a positive light.
Have you ever wondered how rich Gianluca Vacchi is, as of late 2017? According to authoritative sources, it has been estimated that Vacchi’s wealth is as high as $450 million, while his current annual salary is over $20 million. Examples of his net worth can be seen through his ownership of luxurious yachts, cars, homes and other material items.
Gianluca Vacchi Net Worth $450 Million
The son of an Italian businessman who is the CEO and President of the Industria Macchine Automatiche IMA S.p.A., he followed in his father’s footsteps by obtaining a degree in economics and business from the Studiorum University, Bologna in 1988. He grew up in a high-class family but started making a name for himself by modeling from his early 20s, and also tried himself as a designer, focusing on a luxury watch line, but after only a year he sold the company, which contributed considerably to his wealth.
However, aside from successful ventures, Gianlucca was also involved in a failed business, Parmalat, for which he spent three and a half years in jail when found guilty of participating in fraud which bankrupted the company in 2003.
However, he managed to recover financially, and began anew by co-branding watches and sunglasses for the Unique Edition, with the help of Italian entrepreneur Lapo Elkann. He is now the President of SEA, Societa Europea Autocaravan S.p.A. In 2007 he became President of Last Minute Tours, and has continued to serve in that position to the present day. Additionally, in 2010 he became a non-executive director of Industria Macchine Automatiche S.p.A., so it’s easy to see how his net worth has reached its current level.
Gianluca is also an Instagram model, and has posted pictures of himself in various locations and sets, which have amassed a following of over 11 million, which has also contributed somewhat to his already impressive net worth.
To speak further of his accomplishments, Gianluca is a DJ and has released several singles so far, including “Viento”, with the official video for the song receiving more than 8.6 million views, which has only added further to his net worth. Gianluca is also a published writer; his book “Enjoy”, was made available for purchase in 2016, which also added a significant amount to his net worth.
Regarding his personal life, Gianluca doesn’t keep it particularly private, and is perhaps the epitomy of the Italian playboy, which may account for both his broad popularity and relative success in business. In fact he is known as Grandpa playboy, since he has dated several celebrity models, such as Melissa Satta to whom he was engaged, and Giorgia Gabriele to whom he was married from 2014 until 2017. He is now in a relationship with 23 year-old Colombian beauty queen Ariadna Gutiérrez. He is also devoted to fitness and works out every day; some of his training routines can be found on YouTube.
