Defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX owes Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville resort a whopping $600,000, court documents revealing the firm’s lavish spending, as well as a $403,765 bill racked up on delivery app DoorDash, have revealed.

The sum owed to the seaside retreat named after Buffett’s hit single is more than ten times what was previously thought, and the Bahamian hotel claims they still owe $599,409 to Sam Bankman’s beleaguered hedge fund. -Fried, who filed for bankruptcy last November.

At the time, reports indicated that the Nassau complex, located on the opposite side of the island from FTX’s sprawling offices, was seeking $55,319 from the investigation of Alameda, the firm’s sister exchange, which was also owned by the 31-year-old alleged fraudster.

Now court documents filed in federal court this week show that the sum was an outright underestimate, as employees reportedly stayed for weeks, or in some cases months, in elegant luxury suites at the luxurious resort.

In addition to the extended stays, the filing alleges that FTX staff at its US office in Chicago also racked up a staggering $400,000 DoorDash bill in the span of just a few months, after its more than 75 employees allowed three meals a day all in the company. ten cents.

The company-paid meals reportedly consisted of New York strip steak and lobster dishes for $56, which even if ordered three times in one day, would not exceed a $200 daily food credit offered by FTX. .

Taking into account the aforementioned employees, court documents indicate that FTX offered an allocation of $15,000 in DoorDash food delivery credits every day, before the company ultimately filed for bankruptcy.

Several of those rejected employees revealed to the Financial Times earlier this year that FTX had been giving employees the generous food stipend, which Bankman-Fried insisted at the time would be covered by the company.

Fast-forward a few months later, and that company is no more, its disgraced founder having traded his fancy island digs for his parents’. home in the Bay Area, where he remains under house arrest after being released on $250 million bail.

Since their release late last year, FTX and Almada’s spending has come under scrutiny, and federal investigators have unmasked some of the overblown amenities Bankman-Fried promised to provide before her house of cards finally fell.

Those amenities reportedly included Free groceries, a complimentary barbershop, and biweekly massages in the glitzy 9,000-square-foot American office, which FTX was poised to vacate just months before it suddenly collapsed, in favor of a multimillion-dollar headquarters in a 35-story Miami tower. .

In statements provided to Bloomberg, Buffet’s resort employees disclosed the arrangement, stating that employees regularly boarded a shuttle bus at the beginning of the workday to leave Margaritaville, before returning on the bus at the end of the day to their courtesy digs at the other end of the island.

The recent revelations about FTX’s expenses come as attorneys handling its Chapter 11 case have revealed some of the questionable practices Bankman-Fried had when it came to money.

According to court documents, employees submitted the expenses through online chat platforms, which managers would regularly approve with emojis.

An employee told The Financial Times: ‘He just went crazy. If Sam said he was fine, he was ready to go. Regardless of the amount.

Bankman-Fried is currently facing several federal charges related to the FTX collapse, as he is accused of looting the platform for personal gain and securities fraud.
