But he cannot continue to amass a huge war chest fortune. Sure, he’s already got his massive funds to make his mark, but so far it’s cost him dearly and he’s not got any major gains in Ukraine, 13 days in to this, he’s lost around a trillion roubles worth of military equipment, not that the rouble is worth much today, but wars are expensive, his funding sources are drying up, $700,000,000 per day he’s getting in oil and gas exports from the west.
