If I had the opportunity for some street justice on a billionaire I wouldnt fucking hesitate. That said, it would change jack shit. His wealth just passes to the next asshole.
In a hypothetical world where billionaires cannot go outside a security perimeter for fear of their lives, how soon would we see people refusing the inheritance or donating massive portions?
You just assume that everyone rich would seem rich. If i got billions noone would know. Not everyone needs gargantuan houses and excessively expensive cars and yachts.
I would still live in a moderatly tiny house because i don’t like housework AND don’t like strangers in my house doing that.
In fact i just had billions. Nothing in my life would change. I’d be safe in your world 😁
Also what for? To show others i have money? So i could never ever trust a person again? Not everyone wants to be a rockstar. Only those whose personalities are so undeveloped that they need the constant ego-strokes from random strangers to even feel something. I just feel pity for jokes like elon musk.
True, but you’d need to really stay under the radar in such a world. Any point of contact where someone else knows you have that money would put you at risk. And those can be generated just by getting the money in the first place.
For the record I think it would be a terrible world. Historically, mob violence often kills innocent people, all it would take would be an accusation. And one person’s poverty is another person’s wealth. They wouldn’t exactly stop to ask about the economically defined classes. It would be more like, “Dave got a luxury car, I wonder how much money he’s hiding…”
And also, I think I would be someone giving it away as fast as possible. I’m like you, after a couple creature comforts and securing the rest of my life, there’s no more need for the money. It’s not like I can take it with me.
