billionaires are forced to waste incredible amounts of energy and resources creating unique experiences for their billionaire asses
Imagine using such an insane amount of resources on just yourself.
I'm exposed to some very wealthy people at work and none of them are normal. I feel like money is a drug and greed is addiction and these people are so mentally fargone (in that they can only see the world that's described by money and think of every human interaction as a transaction or investment) that they are like children who design their own meal plan
Breakfast: bowl of nerds Lunch: 14 kit kats Dinner: marshmallows
and then wonder why their feelings have gone haywire and they can't get no satisfaction.
very well said
now add the fact that they all have bunkers, and they believe that they will not suffer the ill effects of economic chaos.. this leaves them totally immune to the suffering of others, and that's exactly how they like it.. Mark plans to eat the finest beef in the world on his little island, while the rest of us starve and fight it out over scraps of bread..
