Ukraine President Petro Poroshenko leaves office Monday after losing a bruising election to a comedian.
That’s not all he lost. The confectionery tycoon was stripped of his billionaire status soon after his election in June 2014. Poroshenko’s net worth has declined almost 40% to $705 million, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.
