  1. Links to news stories from...

  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Okay, can we get the facts straight OP?

Is it $17 billion or $117 billion?

The article says $17 billion, but you typed $117 billion in the post body...

Pavel Durov, 40, told the French outlet Le Point in an interview about his decision to allocate his fortune. He's worth about $17.1 billion, per Forbes.

The headline is correct, according to the article. Must have just been an oversight.

I searched the text of the article for 117, zero results found.

Yeah. It's an oversight in the SEO summary. That wasn't me.
