"Merckle, a respected businessmen with a wife and four children, jumped in front of a train in the town of Blaubeuren in southwestern Germany, officials said Tuesday."

He was worth an estimated $9.2 billion, so it's kinda hard to call him a dumbass.

He realized that he is worth more dead. However he didn't realize that doing this would prevent him from collecting the money himself.

He wasn't. He had shorted Volkswagen shares and lost a bundle. He would have had to sell his biggest, most profitable holdings just to cover for the bad bets.

Really, if he had had 9.2 billion afterwards, he wouldn't have killed himself.
