    Here’s what’s weird about it, when you have that much money, you don’t tend to work for anyone.

    Why get involved in some complicated spy game? You’re rich, you don’t have to do shit, and in fact you’re so rich you can do whatever you want… with children… I mean can you picture those same people who feel they are above the law, being beholden to anyone?

      I don’t know honestly. If I had several million dollars I would probably stop there, invest it and live off the interest and never have to work. I may hold down a job as a hobby, but I wouldn’t be beholden to anyone. I guess I would never become a truly wealthy person.

      Obviously there is something else driving these billionaires. It is never enough for them and I think it probably is something along the lines of a mental illness.
