Whether it was to save face in front of his guests and later toss one of his hotel rooms in rage like a rock star, I don't know... @JFCC: I think it was one of nonchalance more than shock/agape.

Hey, what's $139 million to a billionaire anyway?!! For those of you who don't know, I had the opportunity to stay at the Wynn for a conference. It's an amazing hotel. @Sean: I don’t think I saw that particular painting, but there was a Picasso hanging in the registration lobby!

I guess having too much money makes you numb? Did you see the painting that was ripped when you stayed at The Wynn last Spring?

Granted, when you can afford to have multiple paintings by Picasso and Matisse hanging in your hotels (never mind actually owning said hotels), I guess it's like one of us common folk accidentally sitting on an expensive pair of Oakleys!
