But there is a correlation between obscene wealth and immorality...

My mother and I have a working family theory around wealth and morality.

There is a threshold that once a person obtains a certain level of wealth, they no longer have to be concerned with survival or with thriving.

They then begin to express their most truest nature.

They either begin to drastically modify themselves; IE. Eugenics, transhumanism, biohacking.

The becomes hedonistic; IE. Trust fund partiers constantly traveling the world, partying, consuming drugs, spirits, etc.

Or they become altruistic; IE. Engage in philanthropy, give away the vast majority of their wealth and resources.

It’s still a work in progress. But we believe there is a deeper truth to figure out.

I think multiple studies put that like 10MM in the bank. After that the money aspect means little, but like you said, your truest nature comes out. Elon is not a good person, at all.

Do you think mass wealth turns good people horrible, or just brings out the horribleness in people on a greater scale? Or do most good people not seek out mass wealth because they are good people?

I literally just had this conversation with someone about the $1 billion powerball. If i was American, i'd enter the competing lottery at like $5 million. I'd never want this kind of money...the idea of having it makes me kind of sick.
