        At some point of extreme wealth, you get declared a dragon and it should be perfectly fine to organize adventuring parties to attempt to slay you.

          I saw a comment a while ago where someone calculated the equivalent wealth of fictional dragons (e.g. by estimating the dimensions of Smaug’s vast gold trove in The Hobbit) and determined that real billionaires are far worse hoarders of money. Like 1000x worse.

          I should try to find that comment again.

      Um, that’s fucked up. I hate billionaires as much as the next person, and Elon is absolutely a terrible and dangerous asshole, but it’s fucked up to say you’d like someone took murder him.

      That being said, I’d love to him bankrupt and in jail.
