@richmanparadise: Art is a financial weapon. 🎨 Art isn’t just bought because it’s beautiful. Hyper wealthy people collect pieces for way more reasons than just that. These wealthy individuals buy works worth tens, if not hundreds, of millions 💰—not only to store their value, but also to move money, to leverage assets in countless ways, and to represent power and status. 👑 It’s a weapon of finance and wealth. So even if the material used to craft the piece is worth far less, the status and the recognized value it carries worldwide make the ultra rich spend like crazy to obtain it. 🌍 #rich #wealth #businessman #business #investment Credit: Christie's / YouTube
