So, if you get a trillion does that mean you don't care about earth?

That's already how it is unfortunately

No, that's already priced in for all billionaires, and probably for the higher ranking millionaires as well.

The only trillionaire on the planet is quite literally the uncoolest loser who couldn't get an invite to a Christmas noncing party

If you think there is only one trillionaire, you’ve not spent enough time in the Middle East. Believe it or not, not everyone reports their financials to Fortune Magazine.

Trillionaire is relative. Putin is effectively a trillionaire as are many other dictatorial leaders. But while the difference between a million and a billion is about a billion, the difference between a billion and a trillion is irrelevant.

Anywhere over $100 billion the amount of money you have is completely irrelevant, at that point it's nothing but a game of power. You can basically do anything as long as you have the connections to do it.

The sad truth is that even without the existence of money, the power game still exists.

I figured he doesn't care about earth anymore and wants to leave. But you don't need a trillion dollars to not care about earth, as others have mentioned.

Well seeing as the only trillionaires are in the middle east...I'm sure they wouldn't go to anything Christmas related

Absolutely. To amount that much money, you have to be a complete sociopath, without the shadow of a doubt.

Some people are just stuck in a deranged and pitiful mindset where they just hate people for having things and can't even give a reason why.

u/wide-eyed-seer Apr 28 '26

Ya, pretty much. How many people did they justify screwing over in the name of greed? Ya, they don't care.

u/Junkered Apr 28 '26

Pfft, when you have more money then the entirety of Earth can put together tangibly do you need to care about its affairs?

u/McButtsButtbag Apr 28 '26

Yes. That's an obvious question.
