UK Multi-millionaire's Buy of Bulgarian Town "Impossible"

Despite several reports that Britain's multi-millionaire Scott Alexander is trying to buy an entire Bulgarian town, such a deal would be impossible, media claim.

Britain's vainest man would have a hard time purchasing an entire town, mainly because there are various types of land - state, municipal, and private, private Darik radio reported.

The reported sum he had paid for a seaside town in the Balkan country, - GBP 3 M is also laughable, as it would only be enough for about 100 decares of land, 7 kilometres into the shore. A true seaside location for that price would only be about 30 decares, which is quite insufficient for a village.

Earlier reports in the Sunday Mirror claimed that the man, who has spent a fortune turning himself into a bronzed, but balding Adonis, reportedly intends to rename the town after him - Alexander

The 31-year-old man earned himself the fame of Britain's vainest man after spending GBP 55,000 on a new set of teeth and forking out GBP 2,000 a year on Botox. His latest "miracle" defence against ageing is a GBP 100,000-a-year growth hormone programme, which he hopes will keep him alive until he's 140.
