Roman Abramovich’s mother died when he was only one year old, his father passed away when Roman was 2.5 years old, so Roman was raised by his relatives in Uchta. He attended the Gubkin Institute of Oil and Gas, before spending a brief period in the Russian Army, where he managed to buy things cheaply and sell them at a higher price – whether this business was legal or not is indeterminate. When Roman Abramovich was demobilized, Mikhail Gorbachev began the restructuring commonly known as ‘perestroika’ which was the beginning of public. political and economic change throughout the Soviet Union. Previously, private businesses were prohibited, but during ‘perestroika’  the rapid establishment of private companies began.
