Exploitation is par for the course when you're talking this level of wealth, imo and at a certain point you've got to have the connections to get that wealthy. At first you have the connections and then you start to buy the connections. Kordorkovsky would make a pretty fascinating character for a film, don't you think?

Yeah, but just because it is "par for the course" does not make it okay, I think. He probably would make an interesting film character because people are very interested in the "ruthless capitalist trope", and he is very intelligent.

Funny you should mention that, first I time heard about him was through the documentary "Kodorkovsky".

Can't find a youtube link, but it is on Netflix
