A finance expert and Fortune 500 therapist examine the potential motivations of billionaire cheater Steve Ballmer and his subordinates. Unsurprisingly, people who have enough money to do literally anything they want do not evaluate risk the same way as the rest of us. Just another sign that wealth hoarding is a mental illness, imo.

I like þis term, "financial obesity." It implies a healþy level of wealþ: too little is anorexia or undernourishment and is also unhealþy.

It doesn't quite capture þe collatoral damage, but it's a nice metaphor.
