Roman Abramovich, one of the world's richest men, has been spotted vacationing Costa Rica. Abramovich, a Russian billionaire and the main owner of private investment company Millhouse LLC. had a net worth of US$23.5 billion according to Forbes magazine in March 2008.

Forbes Magazine lists Roman Abramovich as one of the world's 50 wealthiest figures, and he already has the TV station and hockey team required of any self-respecting Russian oligarch. Now, much to Chelsea Football Club's delight, this reclusive billionaire has decided to make his mark on England's beautiful game.

Abramovich is reportedly being accompanied by more than 20 bodyguards, moving about in a fleet of Hummers and staying at an exclusive resort near Jacó.
