I could easily spend a billion dollars but most of it would be doing Mr Beast type shit like building houses and wells and hospitals or paying for people’s medical procedures
Perhaps Mikhail Khodorkovsky. I’m sure he managed to squirrel away some of his wealth and now lives comfortably in exile, albeit with a huge bullseye on his back. But if your standard is “lose 100% of their wealth” then that almost never happens to anyone, even working class people who declare bankruptcy due to overwhelming debts.
Does Muammar Gaddafi count? He lived like a king with an anime-style cadre of elite female bodyguards, being essentially the emperor of Libya. He died after some soldiers dragged him out of a ditch and summarily executed him.
Has a billionaire ever lost all their money? Outside of criminal cases. Seems impossible.
Even in a criminal case, they will have more than the rest of us to live on after there 3 year, club fed sentence

Guess the female bodyguards didn’t learn enough from the anime, or maybe he was not the MC.
The movie “Brewster’s Millions” is based on that premis.
