My heart is bleeding
guardian: Meet Robert Tchenguiz: he's lost £560m and counting. But he says the yacht is safe
Rumours that heavy paper losses had forced him to sell his Monaco-moored yacht were laughed off last weekend. He told one newspaper: "So I've lost a lot of money but I'm not in trouble as people keep saying. It's just a case of taking the rough with the smooth, that's all."
Like the name of the article suggests - "Keep counting" - I wonder how soon he'll tire of the rough?

Sounds like he's spent his paper gains, but trying hard to ignore his paper losses.

"led to a fall in the paper value of three Tchenguiz investments of more than £560m in less than 12 weeks." The last 12 weeks could well be the gentle foothills of the Everest of economic downturns, let's see how he's doing in 6 months time!
