I heard when you’re rich enough, everyone wants you for your money. I read wealth can literally change your brain too. (Not posting the article because it was basically an ad for one of the most expensive mental hospitals in the world, and I didn’t finish reading it.)
I’m mostly asking this for your judgements and reasoning of how rich our favorite treat-producing celebrities can be before you personally feel they’re no longer good people… I’m not sure what I mean by the word “good.” At some point they’re the CEO of their own empire, right? When does the addiction to being a liberal defending right wing abuse eventually become part of the riches?
Well… one does not become a millionaire in a vacuum, and I think the context of how you become that rich is important.
e.g. if you’re a millionaire because you own a company and you’re exploiting all those workers, then you’d HAVE to find a way to justify it yourself or you’d go insane from your own evil actions.
But if you’re a trillionaire because your ultra rich distant relative who you never knew about left it to you, then you’ve no need to make that kind of internal justification.
If you’re a treat producing celebrity, this just comes down to what you did and what you supported to get said money. It’s probably impossible to be completely blemish-free.
As the question stands on its own, I think I could literally have all the money in the world before it became detrimental to MY well being. Because the next thing I would do is use it to fundamentally change society, like get to abolishing capitalism, and/or give it all away.
