Q: Is there an I DON'T GIVE A FUCK column on COSO?

The world’s richest 500 people have lost more than $1 trillion in net worth this year.

What happened: Because the ultrawealthy stash their riches in financial assets like stocks, their wealth is correlated with the market’s performance.

Crypto moguls are also cutting butler staff on the heels of an epic wipeout across their industry.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong’s net worth has plummeted 84% to $2.2 billion.

Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance, has watched his bank account dwindle from $96 billion to less than $12 billion.
