Call me medieval, but I don't understand these people... If I somehow had a ploy to make that kind of money in one shot I'd make like a bandit and vanish... Then retire. That kind of money is never work again money. I could retire at 30 and die in my 80s a rich man.

Cause you're thinking like an unhappy poor person. Not like someone who has the entire world at their disposal to consume and exploit.

But that woman in the photo looks like she loves her job & loves the tech industry, she will show up gladly every day and do whatever it is she does to earn that 30 million per year. In fact she would probably show up gladly every day and do her work regardless of how much they pay her, which makes me wonder why they're even paying her at all, we don't get paid to do things we're good at & enjoy!

Do you realize how much a private jet costs?

Have you ever heard of the word greed.

[–] ArmchairAce1944@discuss.online 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yes I have, and I am not that. I would like a few tens of millions of dollars so I can sooth my anxiety that I will never want for anything again. But that is all.

Thats why people do, its like I just need this much, a little bit more, now I want to make sure my next generation or my kids won't have to worry about money, more, more, more. Thats how irl works.

Not really. Most lottery winners go bankrupt, and it is because they spend or give away their stuff.

[–] Obnomus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

If you spend carelessly then this will happen.

I wouldn't spend carelessly. If I had that much money I had planned for years what I would do to it.
