I hope he would do something more interesting than spending his money on a yacht.


There are yachts and then there are yachts.

I assume you're negative towards yachts like Larry Ellison's - giant fuel chugging beasts that the owner flies in to port to go on once or twice a year and that requires a crew the size of a small company to operate.

Then there are small craft with a sail that are completely environmentally guiltless to operate, and that can introduce kids to the joy of sailing and to the wonders of the ocean.

The second kind are awesome.


The second one sounds amazing!


The yacht is just a sidenote to his other, more incredible expenditures. :D
