😱 Saudi princes run out of money //
According to WSJ, Saudi princes that used to enjoy lavish lifestyles are now running out of cash. They have already sold $600 mln worth of real estate, yachts and artwork in order to pay their property bills, taxes and staff salaries.
This is due to the policy of crown prince Mohammed bin Salman, de-facto ruler of the kingdom, that is cutting benefits members of the royal family used to get from the state. For many years they have been accumulating billions of dollars through oil and real estate sales as well as business deals involving the government.
Today not only does the crown prince try to sideline his political adversaries inside the royal family, but he also aims to undermine their financial well-being.

Recently, Russian media have posted news about Telegram possibly introducing newsfeed. There is already something similar on the app: after reading messages in one channel, you can swipe up to read the next one.
However, our readers still dream of a newsfeed more familiar to them. Here, for example, is one concept. It implies creating a separate chat, where you can add any channels you wish, instead of a newsfeed.
