Chinahand Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Bloody hell, it's Mike Lynch's yacht. He's just got out of a US court which accused him of $billions in fraud. I think this quote is a fascinating thing: "the reason I'm sitting here, let's be honest, is not only because I was innocent... but because I had enough money not to be swept away by a process that's set up to sweep you away". Yeah, but you only get caught up in processes like that if you've accumulated vast amounts of money. And now he's likely dead due to a storm taking out his super yacht. Funny old world.
