On the other hand, I get to move around freely and I make enough money to live just about anywhere, and some places like a king?

Yeah, but you're alone. I think this is worse if you're rich-rich; if you move to a house you can afford you'll live with a different demographic, your employees / staff will no longer treat you like an equal, you and your possibly-family have a target on your back if you're known, and if you go to places for the rich - gyms, golf clubs, etc - you run into a completely different demographic, too.

But on the other hand you'll be able to afford experiences few people can.

Actually, for me, on account of the particular circumstances of my career, I actually have close friends all over the world, and its easier for me to fly out to the various cities where they live, that I am now quite familiar with, than to tie myself down to one particular place. I mean certainly traveling was lonelier when I was younger, but now it feels more like I live in one giant city composed of all the great metropolies of the world.
