Don't want to become a public joke? Don't try to influence public policy. Easy peasy.

I don't get these fucking leeches, they could live multiple lifetimes and never have to deal with any stress, but instead they try and make all our lives worse and complain when we punch back.

Because they don't get enjoyment out of life. They thrive on "being someone", "being important", for other people to praise them. That's their whole motivation. The money is just a means to that end. They are deeply insecure, and they need constant validation and for people to cheer them on. They love drama, because it artificially creates something that "matters", and they have big opinions on it. They will never stop.

Same. If I had that much money I'd be quietly trying to give the vast majority of it away as silently as possible.

Like don't get me wrong I'd definitely be looking after my friends and family handsomely but shit.... Just spend the rest doing good and shut the fuck up.
