We talked to Scott Burton, co-founder of a
revolutionary new peer-to-peer wagering site thats
fast becoming the talk of the town.
What is Tedbets, and why should we be
interested?
Tedbets is a peer-to-peer wagering site that lets friends
bet each other on anything. We have a full offering of
major sports but we also allow users to create their own
unique bets on anything.
What makes us interesting, besides our custom bet
capabilities, is how we have leveraged existing social
networks to share bets and rapidly added users to our
network.
What we have now is just the beginning. Over the
next few months we have some significant additions
coming to Tedbets. We have also launched our first

partners to come.

SUCCESS
AND SPORT
To new agers, earth mothers and wheatgrass shot-swigging
neo-hippies, the body may be a temple. But in the big bad world
of work, it can also be your best business asset. We caught up
with exclusive personal trainer Andy Elliot to find out why every
entrepreneur should factor fitness into their business plans
Players will know they want football as a career
from as young as twelve or thirteen. How
important is it to get diet and training right
from an early age?
Its absolutely critical. Early habits will improve players
performances ,as will their concentration on the pitch.
Adopting a healthy lifestyle early on is so important for
the development of organs and bones up until the age of
18, when young men stop growing. If they can control
a good regime of diet and exercise beyond that period
then theyre in a prime position to be at peak fitness at
25-years-old, by which point, all being well, they could be
playing for an equally healthy pay packet.
What are the dangers of overtraining for your
career?
First off, youll have a lack of energy. Youll also suffer
general aches, pains, injuries, and risk damaging joints.
Youll be ratty, depressed, emotional and irritable and this
will have a huge impact, not just on your personal life.
Youll notice a massive decrease in the effectiveness of
your training. If youre overstressed through overtraining
then youll suffer all of the above. But freak incidents, like
heart attacks on the pitch, which some might assume
are the result of overtraining, would actually happen
regardless.
How rigidly do you think players stick to their
health regimes?
Probably only about half of professional players stick
to their regimes. A professional footballer was recently
caught smoking, which you really shouldnt be doing
when youre paid such big money. But the top players
are very focused. Theres a direct correlation between self
discipline and success on the pitch.
To what extent is it a breach of players
contracts to break the rules?
Surprisingly, theres not really anything in players
contracts to say what they should eat and what they

SPACE MEMORABILIA
OUT OF THIS
WORLD
As the sustained interest in Virgin Galactic and the huge
popularity of the film Gravity show, the publics love of all things
space remains strong. If owning some space memorabilia was
on your bucket list, this latest auction was a must.
Bonhams Space History sale on April 8 featured
nearly 300 fascinating artifacts related to decades of
international space exploration, including genuine
spacesuits, critical flight items from the famed
Apollo 11 mission, lunar-flown American flags, rare
photographs and astronauts personal effects.
Two top lots in the sale were from Apollo 11,
the first spaceflight to put men on the moon: an
emblem flown with the craft into lunar orbit, and
signed by the most famous space crew in history
(Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins, and Buzz
Aldrin) sold for $62,500.
Also from Apollo 11, and sold at $68,750, was
a checklist sheet with notes made by Buzz Aldrin
while on the moon. Both sides of the sheet contain
critical data that enabled Armstrong and Aldrin to
return to earth. It is one of the most extensive sets
of notations ever made on the lunar surface.
One of the more iconic pieces in the sale was a
spacesuit from the first manned US flight program,
Project Mercury (19591963), which aimed to
put a human being into orbit around the earth.
Bonhams offered a beautiful example of a Phase
2 suit, made circa 1960, featuring the iconic silver
colouring and an early widows peak helmet.
With a top estimate of $12,000, it actually went for
$43,750.

than just brand loyalty, more of a cultish, even quasireligious devotion. Its brand power is indisputable.
It is hard to grasp just how potent the Ferrari brand
is. The company is not listed in any stock exchange
market and has never spent a penny on advertising.
Yet the prancing horse on a yellow badge is instantly
recognisable across the globe.
According to Luca di Montezemolo, who has
chaired the company since 1991, the three key factors
that have never changed and that remain essential to
the Ferrari brand are extreme technology, beauty of
design, and the emotion of driving.
However, he admits that there is another, equally
defining, feature that separates Ferrari from the
competition. In all of our 7,000 cars a year, there
doesnt exist one that is like any other. For me,
exclusivity is the strength of the brand. I dont like to
speak of luxury. I like to speak of beauty and taste.
Ferrari is indeed a premium couture brand in
every sense of the word. When customers buy an F12
Berlinetta or a 458 Spider, they know they are getting
something unique and special.

The name of sculptor Eleanor Cardozo has been on the
lips of art collectors across Europe and beyond. She is
now the face of luxury watch brand BEDAT & Co. We
discovered the roots of Cardozos passion.
Whats your background?
I am British, but my father has Spanish origins, hence
the Cardozo name and was posted as a military attach
in many different countries. I grew up in Malawi,
Malaysia, Germany, Ghana, Cyprus and Gibraltar,
which allowed for a very rich and diverse childhood,
with so many different languages and cultures.
I come from a large family and my parents
encouraged all of us to learn music and the creative
arts. Most of us now have artistic and entrepreneurial
careers. My brother Gilo invents flying machines and
was awarded an MBE for his contribution to British
engineering. One of my sisters is the designer behind
the luxury swimwear brand Lotty B based in Mustique.
I am very proud of them.
Which artists inspired you to become a
sculptor?
I was always fascinated by the human form and can
remember as a child being in awe of Michelangelos
David and Da Vincis Pieta. The power and grace of
their majestic figures inspired my imagination.
Later Rodin and Camille Claudel became significant
influences, but it was an art master at school who
noticed the strong lines and form in my drawing
and encouraged me to become a sculptor. I loved the
challenge of three dimensions and creating beauty
out of clay and raw materials. I never looked back and
went on to study classical sculpture at the City and
Guilds in London and portraiture in Florence.
Whats your inspiration behind your current
work?
The human being always inspires me, by its beauty,
grace and limitless capabilities. It is a source of endless
intrigue and the most challenging subject for any artist.
Today I am working with a twice world champion
gymnast, who now performs with the Cirque du
Soleil. She has perfect proportions and a beautiful

I love their ethos of empowering and enhancing
women, and they support The Womanity Foundation,
which changes the lives of tens of thousands of girls
and women across the world. In essence there is a lot
of synergy and powerful feminine energy between us.
How much focus do you place on commercial
concerns when starting new sculpture
projects?
Most of my work is privately commissioned, like the
full bronze sculpture I have just finished for Petra
Ecclestone, so the commercial aspect doesnt come
in to it. When I create my own pieces I concentrate
on the pose and the lines of the sculpture. They must
always be graceful and beautiful from each and every
angle. The quality of the bronze casting and final
patina is also very important.
How entrepreneurial is the world of
sculpture?
The world of sculpture is very entrepreneurial as every
sculptor has their own innovative style and use of
materials that shape the art world.
My own style uses classical lines with modern
materials. I mix steel with bronze and have found a
way to keep bronze in its natural, pure golden colour,
without it oxidising. In the past all bronze was heated
and chemicals applied to turn it a different colour,
often to hide imperfections and welding joints. It
is a lot of work and expensive to sand and polish a
bronze to its pure colour, but I think it is simply most
beautiful and gives it a new and modern look. With
many architectural designs now using glass instead of
walls there is less space to hang paintings, so sculpture
is becoming a sought after art form.

NEVER TO YOUNG

Recent research highlights how more and more young

at Direct Lines SELECT Premier Insurance.
possessions.
Britain is a nation of collectors, from the blue and white china
collection passed down through the family to the cutting edge
modern art collections of Londons commuter belt. Each client has a
special affinity with the items that fill their homes.
More and more, I am seeing people making informed decisions
about the art they are purchasing and the younger market is savvier
than ever in this area. Increasingly, they perceive art as an investment,
choosing more affordable pieces that they believe will appreciate in
value.
This trend is supported by our recent research which revealed that a
third of 18-34 year olds have purchased affordable art in the past year,
adding over 1.9 billion to the coffers of the UK art industry.
Art is more accessible than ever, with more places to purchase at
affordable prices emerging, such as the many art fairs and markets
that are popping up across the country, so it is no wonder that there is
a boom in art investment amongst the younger generation. Whether
young people are looking to begin and expand their collections, or
invest their money in something they can enjoy from day to day while
it hopefully gains value, there is something out there for everyone,
thanks to the rise of affordable pieces of art.
Aesthetics are, and will most likely always remain, a key reason
why people choose affordable art, but the value of these pieces as
an investment and marker of social status is becoming increasingly
important. According to our survey, one in five 18-24 year olds who
have purchased affordable art in the last year, did so to impress guests
at their home, or as a status symbol.
It is never too early to start either. Many of my clients have
purchased art for a childs christening gift. Many specialist dealers

ompact, stylish and super powerful, MercedesBenz A45 AMG sets a new benchmark for
premium pocket rockets, one that will be pretty

All of the companys AMG models are
excellent to drive, and this doesnt disappoint.
With the most powerful 4-cyl production engine in the
world delivering a hefty 360bhp max power with 450Nms
of torque, this A45 AMG sprints from 0-62mph in a mere
4.6 seconds and on to much more with ease. Amazingly it
returns a decent 40.9mpg combined and emits just 161g/km
of CO2.
With its impressive high-tech package and the
performance-oriented AMG 4MATIC all-wheel drive, the A
45 AMG is a thoroughbred AMG through and through. This
newly developed AMG high performance 2.0-litre turbo
engine with a power density of 181 hp even outstrips the most
powerful super sports cars around.
In the metal, the A45 AMG may be compact, but theres
no mistaking its performance pedigree. Design features
include an AMG twin blade radiator grille and the cross
strut in the front apron, both painted in matt titanium grey.
Striking black flics surround the large cooling air intakes at
the sides , plus there are AMG light-alloy wheels in twinspoke design and the side sill panels with inserts in matt

LEASE IS
MORE

are purchased by rental and leasing

lease instead of buy? We caught up

REETHI RAH
Surely few places on earth are such a visual wonder as the
Maldives. With a palette of vibrant colours gifted by nature to
inspire even the most pernickety of artistic sorts, the atolls, sky
above and turquoise seas surrounding couldnt be a greater
contrast to the dirt greys and taupes of our cities, lifting the
spirit from the moment you arrive.

LORTOLAN

LOrtolan is well worth a saunter down
the M4 (exit 11) as housed in this former

the area. Cuisine is modern French using

are a variety of menus and private dining
options to make LOrtolan the perfect
choice for business or pleasure.

which offered a variety of dishes each

octopus salad with mango was perfectly
light and flavoursome, the baked
Barkham Blue cheesecake a superb
alternative tosouffl and the poached
Nashi pear with black current and fennel
acrescendoof fresh fruit to leave the
diner satisfied without the ache of over

HOW I SPEND IT
FRANK BUGLIONI
132
Spending weakness;
I like to spend money, but fortunately most of my
time is taken up with training. After fights I enjoy
the occasional shopping spree in Selfridges and
Harvey Nichols.
MONEYMAKER MAGAZINE
Extravagant Purchase;
Im a bit of a film buff, so it would have to be a
private cinema and enjoying the latest films with
friends and family on a huge screen. No seats, just
a massive sofa.
Business Venture;
Its no secret that boxing is a great conditioning
exercise, so a state of the art gym, based around
professional boxing would be my venture.
Money no object;
Id like to think it wouldnt change me, Im happiest
in the gym, training for fights and then competing. I
think Id be the same, but no doubt in a new pair of
gloves and boots every session!
