Very bad imitation of a manor. An ordinary residential home built by Tamanian in traditional Armenian style beats this fluff any day.

I've also heard it means idiot/crazy but read that online somewhere...I don't speak Russian and I dont know rabiz/russian slang.

armanen, just tell me where you live and i'll see if we can make this personal problem of yours something we can resolve offline.

I don't know if that's the same house as this one http://wikimapia.org/760402/Gagik-Tsarukyan-s-estate but this one in the link is from 2009 according to the copyright stamp. What's interesting is when you go to that location with google earth, the front gate is whited out as if its vp cheneys dump or something.

Reread your posts. Once again showing your intellect, or lack thereof, because I speak eastern Armenian I must automatically be a rabiz right?

Don't be suprised if you are banned from here.

Actually dod (dumb witted) is Armenian, and although perhaps not literary, is not a loan word.

We must respect different points of views, this is not against you or anyone specifically. I believe Armanen viewed your comments as "anti-Armenia" and perhaps "against" Armenians of Armenia (?). All of us have concerns about the ongoing "normalization of relations with Turkey," some of us believe this is not a good thing others disagree. We cannot force our points of views on others, but maybe can win over people through our intelligent arguments. Therefore I would urge all of us to control our tempers (and not have virtual duels) since it is not of benefit to anyone to take out our frustrations on each other. Personally, from what I read, I think you mean the best for Armenia and all Armenians - gentlemen lets not let our emotions get the best of us.

Yes indeed, hard to tell if this is the same 'mansion.' I remembered though that Tsarukyan actually owns several, one in the heart of Yerevan and at least two in the suburbs. So it depends. Also, not a few of our oligarchs, including Gagik Tsarukyan, own property and estates (and enterprises) in various parts of Europe.

Re: Gagik Tsarukyan has some 25 MILLION Euros to spend

I heard from several people that the nick began as 'Dogi Gago' since he kept a stable of dogs and it started out as "Dogi Gago" (I know sounds like some rapper's name, also weird to use English, but such is the mythos behind the name). Obviously to most ears it sounded "Dodi" (lit. Idiot's, the ini at the end is a possessive) and the name stuck.

P.S. He has indeed won several championships in arm wrestling.

Dude this theory realy sucks because his nickname is quit old and is certainly not English. I think it comes from his sporting days and when he was younger or could be from the local dialect of his home town.

I can't verify it just wanted to mention it because of the discussion. I heard about this origin of the nickname from different people. It might be just a rumor. Already in 1990s I heard "Dodi Gago," so if true, "Dogi" must have been used earlier.

Yes that's why I think it's from his sporting years or from a local dialect every city has it's own kind of way to give nicknames to people.

Dodi Gago's house can be seen when you drive toward lake Sevan from Yerevan and right when you leave the city limits. There is a multi gas station right there. His house is surrounded by tall trees so you can't really see it.

I didn't hear about him until 2005. Was he big in the 90s? When I compare him with the other so called oligarchs I think he has done more, he personaly gave money to the medal winners from Armenia's Olympic team and does a number of other things to boast the level of Armenian athletics. Of course one could speculate that part of his wealth was earned by shaddy means...
