that's not a cruise ship in the background, that's his boat "Rising Sun"

Cool

He also owns the Pelorus. In 2009, Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich agreed to a divorce settlement with his wife Irina that resulted in her taking ownership of the 377 ft yacht Pelorus. Geffen bought Pelorus from her in 2011 for $300 million, over $100 million more than the reported cost of building Rising Sun. (Which, by the way, is about the same length as a WWII Fletcher class Destroyer) He's worth an estimated 5.5 Billion

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
