    Me too. Honestly, I’ve gotten to the point where I believe one is actually required to be sociopathic and all that comes with it in order to become that ultra wealthy. Capitalism essentially rewards these traits and concentrates them into the greed for power at the cost of all else that we see as a through line with these people.

    People like us and most everyone else just aren’t wired that way, as ultimately we each have a limit to what and who we are willing to sacrifice for material means. We all have experienced greed to some degree within ourselves, but the difference is that it has a ‘bottom’ so to speak.
