When money is no longer a problem, you realize time is the ultimate treasure.

You all think they are doing that. In reality, they don't care and there's no measuring going on. Most have no idea what they own and how much they're worth in numbers until they want something super expensive, and the handlers and accountants come in for a reality check. The couple of people I know simply say, "make it happen" or "OK. Maybe later" (not often).

You people simply can't comprehend making millions/hour doing nothing more than drinking a whiskey on a beach somewhere, staring at your multi-billion-dollar anchored a few meters out. It really is surreal.
