    Life should be easy. I wouldn’t want it any other way.

    I’m confused why someone with enough money to make them puke wants to make life difficult for ME.

    Nothing better to do?

      Human variation.

      Some people are wired to hoard as much resources as possible, like a squirrel compulsively burying nuts.

      We didn’t evolve for the abstract concept of wealth we have now. It’s just a number on a screen, it can go up indefinitely and at a certain point it’s can’t help but accumulate.

      At a certain point there should be “to much wealth to manage” that limits these people, if they don’t have a limit they’re never stop hoarding.

      If they could have ever been satisfied, they would have been long before a billion.

      What I don’t get is why not everyone see this…
