Ronald Lauder paid 135 (!!!) Million Dollar for a Klimt-Porait. Never ever did someone pay more for a single portrait.

^^^^


Ok, this is beyond futility!!!

One word

Awesome

If he is the son of Estee Lauder then his net worth is probably around $3 billion. I guess he has $500 million art collection... well, make that $635 million.

 

[not really ken]

It's an investment

 

[cdawg86]

even if i had the money, i wouldnt buy no portrait.
waste the money on crack or something useful

Exactly! I admit it sounds kinda square but just imagine how many people he could help to survive with 135 MILLION DOLLAR...but no, now he can call some ugly portrait his own.

It's a world-known masterpiece. Everyone would want it. Lauder owns a museum and wants it there. He's worth $3.8 billion so he doesn't need to sell it for more ever.

He could have bought 5 rare, unreleased, and unheard Tewpack mp3's with that money.
