“It’s called kyawthuite (cha-too-ite), a tiny, tawny-hued grain weighing just a third of a gram (1.61 carats). On first glance, you might mistaken it for amber or topaz; but the unassuming mineral speck has value beyond measure.”

      If someone starts with $50 billion, and goes down to a mere $35 billion, can you say they were ‘ripped off?’

        I think rich people can get ripped off but I also can’t argue that $35B isn’t still insanely rich.

      It is kinda pretty, in a super 1974 kind of way I guess…
