He is said to be worth $1.4 billion. Yet despite the colossal Mont Blanc gold pen he wields | like a fat cigar, the enormously expensive Lord & Stewart suit, the butter- soft cashmere overcoat, the private jet, the helicopter, the yacht with a crew of 14, the personal chef, the Rolls-Royces, the thing Maxwell really values most is time.
