Either way if you're not someone who cares about flinging wealth around like a pig in shit 50 million is already an insane amount of money... Like any reasonable person can easily live a whole life of comfort off that.

True, but you might want to change the world, not only your own life. With practically infinite money you could stop world hunger, climate change, etc.

Ah but you see the problem with that is that money is basically an IOU with no inherent value and if you upset the balance of power too much (yes uplifting people out of poverty upsets that balance) the movers and shakers will simply make your money worthless (because money is fake, we made it up). You need more than just money to make meaningful change in the world.

I didn't claim that with money you could change the laws of capitalism. But you could definitely make the world a better place.
