And this is true. Sure there are many hosest rich people also, but MOST of them got their beginnig funds to start their businesses ILLEGIMATELY. Go and study "transition economics" lectures at the local university and you will be surprised. I can recommend some books also. In english.

Agreed. I would say 95% of rich people in Ukraine are mafiozos. And Im talking rich. Millioners. Trust me, if you count which countrys have the most BILLIONERS with a B then Russia and Ukraine will be on top. Countrys full of fucking theifs! |
Unfortunately, I also somewhat agree. Even with Russias Billionairs. Just recently, they have finally looked into Khodorkovsky's deals. Its a shame that he stole so much money from Russia.
Anyway, back to the Maybach. Lets see if that Maybach survives without getting hit by another car in the streets of Moscow
