After Selling A Startup For $70 Million At Age 25, Founder Blows Through Her Fortune And Heads To Prison - Business Insider

Some backstory, supposedly the *fortune* wasn't $70M cash, but mostly illiquid shares which means her take was under $10M ... IMO, with $10M, you have no business living in a NYC penthouse.
