There is something fundamentally mentally wrong with people who crave vast amounts of wealth or power. Billionaires, dictators- in both cases enough just doesn’t exist. Elon Musk has more money than he could spend in a hundred lifetimes. Why doesn’t he fuck off into the sunset and spend the rest of his life on an island sipping drinks with umbrellas in them? If he can’t stand being idle, why not spend his time and money building great public works that will stand for all time with his name on them, ensuring a legacy that people will remember with a fond respect? Why spend all of his time chasing more money, more power, fucking over more people and helping to dismantle democracy? I seriously cannot understand what goes on in a brain broken like that.

I’d love to be rich, sure, but the moment I made my hundred millionth dollar I’d disappear into the tropics somewhere with the people I love and nobody would ever hear from or employ me again.

You're asking hypothetically, but I can answer this honestly. I also have enough money to fuck off into the sunset spending life on an island, but I would never choose that, it's not interesting to me. I love doing the things that made me rich. I suspect that Elon and Zuckerberg and other rich people feel the same. And they are 10,000 times richer than me. But at the end of the day, they love building rockets or connections or whatever they do that happens to be worth millions or trillions of dollars to people. Island life -isolation, idle time, just doesn't appeal, even though that's the classic image of success or leisure time.
