    Billionaires aren’t the only ones giving money. There’s a lot of dirt-broke dumbasses donating their last 5 bucks to a billionaire’s legal fees.

    As for rules of acquisition…

    treat your friends like family. Exploit them.

    once you have it, never give their money back.

    the bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.

    every man has his price

      The broke dumbasses do it for sport.
      And those definitely are Rules of Acquisition, if slightly reworded, but I don’t find them relevant to the situation. Perhaps the following rules are a better fit from the protective of the “donors”:

      #33. Never hurts to suck up to the boss.
      #34. War is good for business.
      #285. No good deed ever goes unpunished.
