Why someone will pay millions of dollars for a painting, is there something behind that normal people doesn’t know?

So I was listening the news about a new art exhibition and paintings reached 80 millions of dollars, I can understand that if you have a lot of money you can afford that but let’s be honest, millionaires are millionaires because at least some of them are smart, me as normal person don’t believe buying a paint for 50-80 million is a smart move, is there something that I’m missing? Something that is not widely shared about those art subast?

for some its love of the arts, for others it is to show their wealth but in the end you can see these things as investments.

buy a Picasso now, maybe he is more popular in 10 years, so you can sell it for twice that , etc.

it’s not like they’re burning money, it’s similar to buying a huge villa or jewelry
