"John Oliver fueled the buzzy topic when he spent the bulk of his “Last Week Tonight” show on HBO this weekend dancing around the Putin topic. Oliver mentioned estimates pegging his wealth at $85 billion, which would put him in a virtual tie with Gates atop the list.
“Although he strenuously denies it, nothing about his finances adds up,” Oliver said before launching into a list of extravagances that clearly aren’t possible on Putin’s reported $100,000 salary. For instance, previous reports have suggested that Putin owns 58 planes and helicopters to go along with his 20 palaces and country retreats, including a billion-dollar home on the Black Sea. "
