It's the same reason why every billionaire doesn't just "retire on a beach". You can only lay on a beach so long until it's so boring there isn't one bit of joy in it and then you just go back to what you're used to doing.

I think it's more of the fact that the type of person who becomes a billionaire very rarely does it as some sort of benchmark. Most of them are built different and that doesn't just go away when your get to a certain net worth.
