Just think of Romney - eighty years old and eating salmon with ketchup alone in front of a huge TV. They're all like this.

When you spend your whole life in pursuit of money and power, you never stop to figure out what you actually enjoy in life. You eventually try to fill that empty hole by telling yourself that you enjoy the work you do.

My grandfather was like that, just relentlessly chasing money his whole life. He eventually tried to pass his business to my father and retire, but he couldn't handle it because he had no clue what he enjoyed beyond money and drinking Budweiser. Eventually he pushed his way back into the business despite being nearly deaf and starting to suffer from dementia. He was so proud of being rich, but he ended up losing most of his money by trying to Feinstein it.
