Did they really think that making the least charismatic man alive the face of their product would endear the public to it?

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day.

A friend of mine got a $700 Herman Miller office chair in perfect shape that was in a university's dumpster, the rich fuckers throw so much away if you know where to look.

  1. Merman Melville is an S-tier username
  2. If I were to somehow become a billionaire and I for one reason or another couldn't use it to improve people's lives, I'd just pay a bunch of indie game studios to make all the dumb game ideas I don't have the time or energy to create myself. Oh, and get myself a hot tub.

That was Notch's plan, but he ended up becoming a Nazi so good luck

imagine having a billion dollars and you choose to spend your life in board rooms and meetings instead of, like, starting a hippie commune on a tropical island

Honestly it's a communist power move asking people what they would do with a billion dollars and then telling them how much they would have left after they list changing their lives, the lives of everyone they know, their entire community
