Agreed, and I think Musk is an outlier. I think a bigger counterpoint for me would be "to what degree does wealth intersect with impulse control." I'd be shocked if there wee not a strong association, but it's also not going to be strictly linear. The might be diminishing returns at the poles, as well. The very low ends of impulse control look like "this guy blew grass clippings at my car so I shot him."

An outlier?

Nadella lives in an AI generated cocoon of psuedo-information, if his words are to be believed. Zuckerberg thinks he's Caesar and has become Dominican, post metaverse, for some reason. Bezos has become a Miami club promotor with phallic rockets. Thiel rants about the coming Anti Christ in seminars and keeps trying to create 'libertarian' cities (that he would own). Altman talks about the coming age of the Dyson sphere. The immortal vampire guy goes to sleep at 4pm or something insane.

The highest echelon of wealth allows you to follow every possible impulse in a 'disciplined' way at any given moment.

"this guy blew grass clippings at my car so I " purchased every home around me for a mile and constructed a private compound free from the interference of lesser mortals, then bankrupted the guy that dented my car?
