But think of how many people's lives you could ruin with that kind of power!

Plenty of people probably did, but the ones that don't are the ones that stand out, so they're the ones we know. Nobody cares about the guy who made a billion dollars and fucked off somewhere; even if they're still a blight on the country with that much wealth, we've got bigger fish to fry.

I'd just think "Sweet, we're set for life, and I can spend all my time with my wife and kids." Why would I sacrifice that kind of life just to see numbers on my bank accounts go up in a way that no longer meaningfully affects us?

I'm sure there are a massive amount of rich people with this mindset. we just don't hear about it cause the few that keep on getting wealthy for the sake of power ruin it for everybody

Im poor asf and still retired. I'm living this life without the money part. I have zero need to fuck up other peoples lives just because i dont work.

Bezos, Musk, et al. feel that they have not yet received what the world owes them. And since that feeling is a form of psychosis, they never will.

Me too. Honestly, I’ve gotten to the point where I believe one is actually required to be sociopathic and all that comes with it in order to become that ultra wealthy. Capitalism essentially rewards these traits and concentrates them into the greed for power at the cost of all else that we see as a through line with these people.

People like us and most everyone else just aren’t wired that way, as ultimately we each have a limit to what and who we are willing to sacrifice for material means. We all have experienced greed to some degree within ourselves, but the difference is that it has a ‘bottom’ so to speak.

Because you have a mental disorder forcing you to do anything to feel important and validated as the genius you hope other people will see you as

But what if there was more than being really, really, really good looking.

ORANGE MOCHA FRAPPUCINO!!!

To be fair, there are rich people that don't make much noise but for obvious reasons you don't tend to hear much about those ones...

I think they spell things correctly in the DSM

Not sure what’s worse, then you have their nepo baby kids who never worked but now have all that money and can buy whatever companies they want and make whatever shitty business decisions they want.

Yes see, we ARE correcting the system, by forcing the 5 Pro trans athletes to not be athletes and bombing Iranian kids and locking up anyone Mexican and Mexican adjacent!
