Power.

Not a nicer car. Not a better vacation. Not a bigger house.

The ability to buy companies, fund institutions, shape industries, influence politics, and absorb enormous losses without changing your lifestyle.

At a certain point, more money stops buying a better life. It starts buying more control.
