Bloomberg breaks record for most self-funding in political race

All I can say is: Wow.

Michael R. Bloomberg, the Wall Street mogul whose fortune catapulted him into New York’s City Hall, has set another staggering financial record: He has now spent more of his own money than any other individual in United States history in the pursuit of public office.

He's spent $85 million of his own money so far. And he could spend up to $140 million by the time all is said and done.
