  1. This man was recently embroiled in a high profile court case in June when he stood trial for Fraud in the US (he was accused of defrauding HP).

  2. Oh well.

    In other news, Dacia announce the release of…..

  3. The ocean has claimed its annual Billionaire sacrifice.

  4. Thoughts and prayers for this great man!!! 😔🙏

  5. He fits the profile of a low budget film villain who’d fake his own death to avoid paying taxes

  7. Reddit comment section is a depressing place, maybe even worse than Twitter. Wondering where the line is exactly, beyond which you stop being seen as a human.

  8. maybe with tragic events like this that affect the rich, officials will start to recognise extreme weather events and their correlation to climate change is something that affect all of us, disproportionally so, but it still does.

    Whole villages burnt to the ground unable to rebuild, killing and dislocating hundreds of people, not such a big deal!!!

    Obviously, I’m being sarcastic
