Blago Kokot is a man of culture, so he has spent a significant portion of his salary on art of various kinds. According to Blagot, investing in art is never a bad idea. The very first thing he bought this time around was a tasteful nude painting - of himself! The painter is unknown, so the price was not that bad, only a couple thousand dollars. Blagot is planning on keeping it for a while in the hopes that the value will rise. Blago is a quite well-known figure in Yellowknife, but more so in Europe. If Kokot decides to get involved in politics after his playing days are over the painting could be surprisingly valuable.
Another interesting artful thing that has made its way into Kokot's collection is a rock that looks like a banana. What is unique about it is the fact that the rock was shaped by nature! Or that is what the seller stated. Kokot spent 10k on it. The plan is once again to keep it for a while and see if the value moves anywhere. If World War 3 indeed is in the horizon, the demand for rock art could raise as you could use rock art as a weapon or to reinforce your house to make it more sturdy. Can't do the same with paintings necessarily.
