He's one of the richest people in the world already and he has the economy of a large country to steal from. It's not impossible for him to have done this, it just seems like a very inefficient strategy to get more money.
- leobg 5y agoSure. It's not gonna move the needle in terms of what kind of boat he can afford personally. As a person, he already can have anything he wants, so I, too, doubt that there would be any motivation in that regard. My question is rather: Could such a strategy be used at a scale large enough to matter on a geopolitical scale. Could such schemes become, in other words, a "second income stream" for dictators that they can use to keep themselves in power, or to strenghten their countries' economical situation?
