Billionaire built 'sex cave under mansion

What is a man to do with $2.3 billion?

If you are Henry T. Nicholas III, one of the original dot-com billionaires – whose fortune survived the crash of 2000 – the answer is simple: build a “sex cave” under your house, maintain a fully stocked warehouse of drugs, get high on your two private jets, keep a brothel’s worth of prostitutes on the payroll and, during the boring moments, spike your colleagues’ drinks with Ecstasy.

That is what prosecutors claim in an astonishingly wide-ranging case against the 49-year-old technology tycoon that focuses on charges that he rigged his company’s stock option scheme.

The indictment detailed a lifestyle so extraordinarily profligate that not even the description of “Gatsbyesque” could suffice. It is alleged that Mr Nicholas hired prostitutes and escorts for himself, his employees and his customers, and conspired to obtain illegal prescriptions for drugs such as Valium.

He also allegedly kept a warehouse full of drugs and built a $30 million “sex cave” under his mansion with a bar and a million-dollar sound system where he and his rock star friends indulged themselves.

In addition, it is claimed that Mr Nicholas’s consumption of marijuana was so prodigious that during a 2001 flight on a private jet between Orange County and Las Vegas the pilot had to put on an oxygen mask; and that on two separate occasions he drugged unsuspecting colleagues with Ecstasy.
According to prosecutors, Mr Nicholas required several unnamed co-conspirators to provide detailed invoices for drugs they sold to him and used codenames such as “party favours” and “refreshments” to conceal what was being traded.

Appearances, honour, and reputation are everything here! Some people think: if nobody knows, then sky's the limit. But God does know and sees. In the end, everyone pays.

Could we have details about the "sex cave" procedures and contents? Is it for sale on eBay yet?

That would be an unforgetable birthday gift. I'll tell dw that this is what I want for my birthday. I want this built under our villa.
