Putin's Vast Hidden Wealth Rivals Top Billionaires Through Secret Networks
- Putin's true net worth is unknown but likely rivals top Western billionaires like Elon Musk, estimated between $70-200 billion
- He hides his vast wealth in a complex "cobweb" of secret bank accounts, offshore deals, properties, and assets held by oligarch allies
- His properties allegedly include palaces, aircraft, helicopters, yachts, luxury cars across the globe
- Leaked papers suggest wealth via state corruption and kickbacks from loyal oligarchs who hold some assets for him
- Identifying his assets hard due to distribution across shell companies, real estate, and allies' accounts
