    Totally right. Would be a horrible world. But for many it already is. Guess it’s reciprocal to your net worth. And it’s also no wonder people yearn for a violent solution. No sensible, human solution is possible. Billionaires don’t go away due to words.

    Also yes. I make sure the tiny circle i call family is safe and sound and doesn’t need to worry about a number in some bank, but besides… I love boats yes, admittedly. But even with a gifted yacht i wouldn’t know what to do with it. A house on the water? I know people who e. G. drive fancy poser-cars. And when i ask them what makes this car so great, it usually comes down to… “errr because it’s <insert brand>”. And, of course, it’s brands that EVERYONE know is expensive. That’s the only reason. They wouldn’t pay the same for a brand noone even knows how expensive that is. It’s not the looks, not the features, not the power, not the feeling when driving, it’s the fucking price-tag.

    But i also know the other kind. If you’d meet them on the street you would ask if they need a dollar or some food. But they’re more rare.
