They keep labeling this ship a "super yacht."

Fake news: It was a large sailboat. A 'yacht' but still a sailboat. HUGE difference. Oh, but defenders will say, "It was FIFTY-SIX METERS LONG!!!"

There is some psychology in phallus in thar.

IDGAF. It's a SAILBOAT, a different class of yacht.

THIS is a 'superyacht' in my mind:

This was the Bayesian:

But what should we expect from those who serve people with more money than brains, in this case a rich venture capitalist 'phallus' who just got away with fraud in US courts (the purpose of the celebratory cruise around the Med) and couldn't afford to be in the class of Paul Allen and Jeff Bezos?

Note: There was arguably MASSIVE fraud at Autonomy, and Lynch and his CFO Sushovan Hussain both faced other legal battles, in addition to damages from a civil case brought by HP.

From one perspective, this was karma delivered by the hand of God.

Good post I think you summed it up well

His company value was written down by a factor of billions by HP (almost all of it in fact!!). Very strange the whole thing.
