I think this stems from a misunderstanding of how much money a billion dollars is

Yeah "rich" starts at way less than a billion dollars. Someone with a paltry 10 million in the bank is already absolutely loaded, and has won the game.

Most of us would be more than happy with 100k in the bank, honestly, as long as our society is stable and structured to care for “nonproductives”. Nobody really needs a lot, we just need long-term stability.

really you don't need money at all, what you need is a society around you that produces things and gives you company.
100k isn't going to help me much if a blight wipes out all the tomatoes in europe, unless i want to fly to another continent just to eat some tomatoes for a while
