    Once you go beyond $100,000,000, there is no measurable difference in lifestyle. However, power accumulates. That amount of power shouldn’t be in the hands of so few.

      I would disagree, 100 millionaires don’t own F1 teams or have boats so large and so much money they can take down bridges to get them out of port.

      The problem is people like myself and many other can’t fathom even desiring things so absurd… And many of these billionaires won’t rest until they own the entire world.

        You’re right, of course. I think it’s more like there isn’t much of an upgrade in lifestyle in general. Sure, it’s an order of magnitude more wealth, but you can do basically all of the most luxurious things in life.

        For most luxury, you’re staying at the same presidential suite and driving the same car and that kind of thing. It’s not diminishing returns necessarily. I dunno.
