One of the problems of having so much money is that you have to do something with it. You can’t have piles of cash lying around in an inflationary environment.

High interest rates? They’re buying Picasso on credit?

I have that Andy Warhol Marilyn artwork. Picked it up at Walmart for 5 bucks. High interest rates didn't bother me. 😊

If you buy a $10m+ painting just because you like it, then it won’t be a bad investment

Shame, poor billionaires, losing millions on "art". Who knew things had to have actual value? Like crypto... Inherently bitcoin is worth $0 as you cannot eat 1 and 0's. Losing money on art? this is so terrible! Maybe the 🍊💩👑 must sign a royal decree to give them some of the new tariff tax $ ? #usa

This makes me want to look up that scummy looking company that was allllll over old Twitter before the Nazi bought it. The one that was fooling people into thinking they would get rich investing into art that they purchased. But was red flag city.

They have crypto now, so fine art is no longer needed for the laundering.

If you're doing major crimes, little league crimes, or in between crimes, crypto is the greatest thing ever invented. You can still move art though, if only for the sake of nostalgia.
