To quote Justin Timberlake’s sniveling character in the Social Network trailer that’s running 24/7 these days: “A million dollars isn’t cool. You know what’s cool? A billion dollars.”
Mikhail Prokhorov Is A Snob: What You Gonna Do About It?
↵But Justin’s character has it all wrong. You know what’s cool? Having 17 billion dollars.
↵Having more yachts, guns, and women than a normal human could possibly imagine. Forgetting where your 200-foot yacht is. Putting your face on random billboards in New York City, just because you can. Dropping $53 million on a villa before deciding, “Nevermind.” Commissioning a professionally produced video of yourself doing jet ski stunts.
↵Or today’s news. Dropping a $100 million to start your own luxury magazine called “SNOB” in Russia and the United States. “Snob also runs an invitation-only social network,” reports the Moscow Times. Of course it does.
↵A billion dollars isn’t cool, Justin. Neither is creating Facebook. You know what’s cool?
↵Being Mikhail Prokhorov.
