My Take
Dmitry Rybolovlev fascinates me as a study in sheer audacity. A medical graduate from Perm who ended up running the fertilizer giant Uralkali and then cashed out his majority stake for 6.5 billion dollars is a trajectory almost too improbable to script. I find the art-collector chapter even more revealing, the disputes over masterpieces exposing how rarefied and contentious that world is. I do not romanticize the oligarch model, and the controversies around his dealings warrant scrutiny. But the nerve required to make and unmake fortunes on that scale is undeniable. He is, whatever else, never dull to read about.
