    Normal people fantasize about winning the lottery and having a few million mostly so that they can stop participating in the rat race, quit their job, have more time for creativity, have more time for family, have more time to be human. The fact that these people blow past that, and continue to want to hoard wealth shows how sick they actually are. If they were hoarding literally anything else nobody would question it. They do not work harder than everyone else.

      To make it even worse, a lot (all?) Of that wealth is not even real. So they’re hoarding imaginary wealth which they use to keep everyone else from having real material security. The whole system is screwed and we just let it happen. Its quite depressing.
