How did he go flogging that gold and diamond encrusted 'Betamax' video recorder made by Damien Hirst? :)

But really, I think this thread has had its day. I will assess CFE and TS based on the decisions made in relation to CFE.

I couldn't care whether TS spends his own money on wine, women, song and soccer. Successful people usually are very prudent when it comes to their business investments, but behave very differently when it comes to their personal expenditures, such as cars etc. which have huge depreciations.

Earn it at one end, waste it at the other.

(And, don't believe everything you read anyway. As with pieces of art supposedly sold by Damien Hirst at unbelievable prices (like the diamond skull for $100m), the truth of the matter was very different - the diamond skull was secretly passed in, not sold. Meanwhile, that (bogus) extravagent price for Hirst's work lifted the sale price for other Hirst items, which people priced in relation to the sale price of the skull.)
