One of the problems of being really rich is that so many people are willing to lie to you for a taste of your sweet, sweet lucre. I’m sure the pervasiveness of the sentiment is one of the factors the builds billionaire resentment of everyone else.

Also, legality, regulation and good ideas become secondary matters. This is not just an issue when it comes to yearnings to go to space, or Everest, or Titanic, but also when you’re annoyed that your grandson is gay, or that your sex life is wanting, or that your own body is getting old and creaky. People will show up with fabulous schemes by which to fix all that for you and (allegedly) make your dreams come true.

Also, to quote Robin Williams: Cocaine is God’s way of telling you, you have too much money.
