Only four are at issue in the trial, including Leonardo da Vinci’s “Salvator Mundi, ” Latin for “Savior of the World,” which Rybolovlev’s lawyers say Bouvier bought from Sotheby’s for $83 million, only to resell to Rybolovlev a day later for over $127 million. In 2017, Rybolovlev sold it through Christie’s for a historic $450 million as it became the most expensive painting ever sold at auction.
By my rough calculations, for this piece:
$450M - $127M = $323M profit for plaintiff = shut the fuck up
Seriously though. He made a huge profit and is suing a third party that had nothing to do with the private sale between he and his dealer because he realized dealer screwed him. Not sure why you were being down voted.
Simps crying for billionaires. Or they just hate basic math.
I hate billionaires AND basic math.
To be fair, those $46 million will buy quite a few avocodo toasts and lattes
Sometimes life is truly unfair.
Suck shit billionaire bitch.
He bought goods for a value that was greater than the value he imagined they would be worth. Isn’t that precisely how one would accumulate billions in the first place, except in reverse?
It gets better. He resold one of the paintings in question for a profit of 320 million$. He is suing because his speculative profit wasn’t big enough.
the fastest way to become a billionaire is to start as a trillionaire!
Someone sell this asshole a polar bear liver.

And a trip on Oceangate’s next sub.
Tearful? Jesus Christ, somebody’s lost all sense of proportion.
It’s frustrating for the super-rich when an extremely popular method of laundering money proves to be filled with shady characters. LMFAO.
Lemme just grab my popcorn
Forgive the source of the image/product, can’t be fucked to make my own version, and let me just get out my mug for billionaire tears
Also, just going to leave this here
