Though the wealth of the world may be evaporating from the places we are accustomed to finding it — such as the the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, which mismanaged its finances so badly it now faces an audit and possible takeover — we may simply need to look to other places to find riches; like Lebanon, whose banks are flush with cash during the global recession to the bafflement of economists worldwide; or Syria, where recording artist Porest goes to stock up on the (pop) cultural affluence that Iraq’s northwestern neighbor offers; or, you can do as Somalian pirates do, and find it on an oil tanker that’s longer than the Chrysler Building set on its side. Happy hunting.
