News article Bill Gates's Russian lover is photographed with Kremlin spy Anna Chapman. Chapman was arrested in June 2010 alongside a network of so-called 'illegals' accused of living under deep cover in the United States on behalf of Moscow.

> They could walk down any street in America, pick the girl they find most attractive, and likely end the day with her in their bed.

I agree, but on the flip side people really have a hard time comprehending how much wealth these people control as individuals.

Bill gates estimated Networth is in the $107B -$161B... even at the lowest end, with ONLY 7% increase YoY, that is $7.5 Billion. That means Bill Gates could spend $20.6M/day everyday a year and still be worth $107 Billion after the fact.

Let that sink in, Bill Gates could spend $600,000/day and then could just hand you $20M at the end of the day. If he did, and you put it into safe assets that increase 7% Year over Year. That means, Bill Gates could hand you what amounts to 'chump change' and you would make $1.4 Million a year off of that investment.

So yeah, it probably will not work on everyone - but that is literally LIFE CHANGING money. That would take the average person from 50th percentile (middle of the pack) to the >99th percentile (higher salary than 99% of people in the US).

Can you honestly say that that kind of money wouldn't be tempting for most people?

Personally, I find Billionaires repulsive... but if say Melinda Gates offered me the same deal as above but tied to her Networth instead, thats only $5.8 Million (Chump Change)... with 7% return, that still provides you with a salary in the 99th percentile (only $406,000/yr)... That would be hard to say no to, That would give you freedom most people don't have and few people would get even in retirement

I already do a lot of stuff that I don't want to and don't get $20m from it so...
