      That’s exactly what happened and it’s not secret. They are referred to in some publications as ‘the couple’.

        Where did you see that they were a couple?

        The newspaper said the unnamed Moroccan man is married to a woman of Spanish origin with two children, and that Mr Puech refers to them as his “children”, “daughter-in-law” and “adopted son”.

        It said he was particularly touched at the way they looked after him during the Covid pandemic.

        Sounds like he’s a reclusive hermit who inherited family wealth, and wants to give it to the only friends/family he has.

          And, of course, the only people he thinks are in need and “deserve” it are the few members of the unwashed masses he interacted with on a daily basis that he views as worthy of his unearned fortune.

            Reclusive hermit

            has 1 chosen “family” that took care of him and loved him

            leaves half his fortune to that family

            confusing innit?

      Your oligarch dick sucking aside, the nice thing about losing 99% of five billion dollars is that still leaves you fifty million dollars.
