Used to work with a billionaire. Can confirm.
One thing all super rich people seem to do is end their emails with the most basic signature. Like just their initials in lowercase or something.
Same exact principle as how many of them like to dress in jeans and t-shirts. They think that it demonstrates that they're so significant and intrinsically powerful that they've transcended the need to signal wealth and power. But it's really just another level of signaling: trying to signal that they don't need to signal, which is in some way even more poser-ish and pathetic
Tbf if I got all the rich you'd never be able to tell by outward appearance, it'd take you a sec to be like "hey wait a minute, do you have like, a job? How do you afford living?" I'd pay off my house, keep my used car, keep wearing my dumb clothes, you'd start questioning when all the camera lenses and expensive whiskey rolled in but only if you knew me and bourbon well.
