Here’s another article about how rich Jeff Bezos is. Be sure to have a barf bag at the ready.
The Koru is a 416-foot masterpiece with three towering masts, each standing 230 feet tall, that harness kinetic energy to propel the vessel. The yacht is so massive that, for it to leave the shipyard after completion, a historic bridge in Rotterdam had to be dismantled. Bezos even offered to fund the dismantling and reconstruction of the 95-year-old De Hef bridge but later abandoned the plan amid public outcry. Eventually, Koru was towed away without her masts, which were later assembled.
The tone of this article is astonishing. “He even offered to pay to vandalise a historic building”, how selfless…
Eventually, Koru was towed away without her masts, which were later assembled.
It’s bonkers that this was an option but they still intended to dismantle the bridge instead.
I guess it’s just about the prominence of owning crap but even if I was stupid rich I feel like I could just pay an obscene amount to rent a yacht?
Philanthropist? More like Philanthrapist, amiright?
This isn’t “vomit-inducing”, it’s rage-inducing.
If someone can give away 99% of their hoarded wealth, and still be a MULTI BILLIONAIRE, you know that the global community needs to come together and put caps on personal wealth. Taxing them isn’t enough.
I don’t set why this makes you mad. I fail to see how this is mildly infuriating let alone vomit inducing.
