Buying one way tickets to hell for Russian soldiers by selling off Russia's gold and treasure... What will be left when all the humans and gold have been carelessly traded away by Putin to power the mindless Russian war machine?

This might not be exactly as bad as you think, the sycophants surrounding putin are in it for wealth, not to restore the soviet union (they do ofc play along, or get thrown off a balcony). So when he dies, after the power struggle, there is a big chance that we, the west, can leverage help vs "democracy" etc. Stopping the war ofc. And so on. The rich in Moscow gets to enjoy their super yachts and villas in Italy and their wifes shopping in Paris, in counterpart for dismantling their war machine.

At least It's a possible scenario.
