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?

    You can’t separate money from politics and our current way of life is set up to discourage sharing and encourage hording. However if I ever come into possession of a large sum of money I would invest it into a community, that can help provide people (including myself) with needs like shelter, food, emergency care etc. and provide without discrimination. If I started hoarding wealth and not doing anything useful with it or started prioritizing my buddies over my community, that’s when I consider myself fallen ill and would hope someone helps me or at least stops me from harming anyone if I can’t be saved anymore.
