Being a successful musician both in the former communist country and abroad, he amassed enough money so that when the communist regime was liquidated, he became a successful businessman, an owner of an airport, several factories and other investments.

In 1989 he founded a record label Bonton. In January 1992 he became a board member of the investment privatization fund TREND
