why do rich people keep chasing money more and more?

like you have enough money to retire on a florida beach but these old bags of bones are still working until the day they die just hoarding wealth for essentially no purpose.

they already have everything and can’t even spend their money in their lifetime. but they still just crunch profits and work until they die. look at biden throwing an entire country in the meat grinder and he can’t even walk and talk anymore.

They don’t chase money. Most of the rich I know are passionate about what they do and just keep doing what they’re doing even after making it. Just look at vitalik bill gates, most doctors (if you notice lots of them work till 70 and shit).

Stop making money the end goal and you’ll unironically make a ton of money cause your focus is on value

because they're not chasing money, they're chasing power. money is power but so is being the boss. they become addicted to the power and need more

Rich is an illusion. Some people own a money printer, they use that to print money to fulfill government obligations which are provided by their friends and family. People closest to the money printer get rich and everyone else gets enslaved having to work for money that other people print for free and then having most of that money stolen in the form of taxes and inflation. Some people setup a business and make some money but they are relatively rare.

There is no specific reason for that anon, it's just how it is, while some of us just focus on getting there, the ones that are already rich want to keep making more, and honestly I'm too tired to keep trying, I'll just wait until my avax is worth enough to buy a house and my pond, well, I ain't selling that kek

theres always a better beach, plus the price of real estate keeps going up. I guess if youre ok with living in Tampa you can stop chasing money after a certain point but some of us want to live in miami or west palm beach and that shit is fucking expensive

>hoarding money

nobody actually does this, continuing to expand your business or creating new businesses to make more profit isn't hoarding money, it's stimulating the economy. even just investing money in mutual funds or stocks is creating liquidity in the market. i don't understand why you guys think rich people just park all their money in a bank account and sit on it

Once you become rich you join the "rich club", but you're on the bottom rung. Your $5M boat is like driving a 2005 Honda Accord to these people. Now you're at the bottom of the ladder, getting mogged at the marina, and the same instinct which made you rich to begin with keeps you climbing.

yes you did that's the only way you could conceivably "hoard money", that or actually holding piles of cash in your house. rich people don't hoard money, it's not a thing that happens, almost all their money is being utilized for a purpose

again hoarding wealth isn't a thing and if you think it is you're a brainwashed commie redditor fuck
