A more thorough explanation:
LOCUPLETARI CUM DAMNO ALTERIUS
Locupletari cum damno alterius is a Latin phrase that means to be enriched through the damage sustained by another.
- A company may gain profits by stealing customers from a competitor, causing the competitor to suffer financial losses.
- A landlord may increase rent prices after a natural disaster, taking advantage of tenants who have lost their homes and have limited options.
These examples illustrate how one party can benefit from the harm or loss of another. In both cases, the first party gains an advantage or profit at the expense of the second party's misfortune. This practice is unethical and can lead to legal consequences.
