  1. 600 million dollar yacht? how much money do these people have if they can afford to spend half a billion on a boat, jesus christ

  2. There are said to be two more Russian yachts in the Hamburg port at the moment. Interestingly, ‘Graceful’, a yacht allegedly belonging to Putin himself left suddenly a couple of weeks ago before its refit had been completed.

  3. Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich Hayek and many big smart heads of economics and philosophy would be seriously concerned and scared right now. We are touching in The Holy Grail of democracy and capitalism, in **the private property**. Do you understand how dangerous is this? This is the road to communism.

  4. The UK government has been thinking about acquiring a modern replacement for HMY *Britannia*. I wonder if there are any of these Russian owned floating gin-palaces currently in UK waters or ports that would suit?

  5. Seems a bit dodgy that they can and will just steal stuff from Russians abroad now.

    A Russian janitor living in a small apartment in Berlin can now expect German police to barge in and seize his TV, his radio, his shoes…

  6. So what to do with it? These sanctions will not be lifted next decade. Sell it? Donate to Ukraine?
