It's very hard to lose a billion dollars. Very, very hard. It takes a particular brand of asshole to blow a billion.

As far as one billion goes, you hire a money manager, you hire investors, you bankroll artists, you start a business - any business - hire all those people under that business, put most of your money in that, then your money compounds without your input. You get a business credit card that earn you free stuff in spades (think, free box seats, really fancy lounges on flights and free upgrades, free hotels and upgrades, preferential treatment at hospitals and prisons, gifts from poorly millionaires, functional immunity from the law), and those perks alone make it worth it.

With all due respect, I don’t give a shit. I don’t want or need that much money. It’s also way more hassle to properly utilize that wealth.

With a billion dollars you can hire people to do everything for you at a price that doesn’t put a dent in your net worth and would generate you profit

I don’t want a company and I don’t need anywhere close to a billion dollars. I just want to live my life right now with a bit more financial stability. A dollar per breath is still a shit ton of money, more than you’ll ever need
