        If you have a million dollars saved up or onherited or whatever, ill scowl at you and tell you that money should be put to good use, but i dont tjink you should get the wall for that alone.

        A million dollars is a solidly nice house in a good place. Im against suburbs, the form of it, but the basic thing is something everyone deserves to have. A billion dollars is several neighborhoods of those. You literally canmot use that. Thats enough you vould buy a 2 million dollar house for every day of the year, sleep in each one only one day a year, and still have enough money for truly degenerate decadence every waking hour of your life until you die.

              And also your brain would be so damaged by the money you wouldn’t be able to enjoy anything.

              I don’t know, man. Drugs and women. All my money would go to that. I feel I could enjoy a lot of stuff with that much money. Not to mention I would buy a huge Lemmy instance just to annoy and shitpost. Welcome to UniversalMonkWorld baaaabbbyyy!!!

              You have higher morals than me. :)

                    Youbcant have that money without being like that. It’s not allowed.

                    And even if you coukd; the money does some of it to you. Very very few people are able to stay human while getting wealthy. This has actually been studied.

                    Starting to become noticable at ~the 6 figure line in pre pandemic usd, not adnusted for regional COL, you start to lose your mind. Thats just when you see the first symptoms, mind you. I dont know where the ‘there’s no person left’ line is.

          I am of the opinion that a single person should not be allowed to have more the a billion in wealth. Even that is absurdly high.
