Hoarders

For me, the entire point of wealth would be to free me from worry. I am not above enjoying the comfort and enjoyment money would provide. I would fly first class and rent nice places when I traveled and have a fancy if not very large home. A nice kitchen. I would go out to nice restaurants more often, though probably not even that often.

My personal lifestyle choices aren’t the point though.  I would want it to free me from worry.  What is the point of being a rich guy who stares at the line on CNBC all day?  What is the point of being a rich guy who has to manage a large staff and worry about personal security?

I am sure those rich guys exist, ones who just enjoy life. They are the ones we never hear about.  But the weirdos we do?
