Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, George Soros. I had a period where I appreciated people who played the system to get rich. Before I understood the system itself is the problem.
What I find most interesting is that Warren Buffet has come right out said it's weird that society will reward people into being billionaires and has publicly stated that there's is for sure a class war going on and billionaires are winning.
I think it's nice he's giving most of his fortune away but disappointing he hasn't called for the system that made his fortune to be dismantled.
Damn this was so sad. What kind of a bummer must your childhood have been if Warren Buffett was your hero?
I remember him as being a scumbag going back to the 80's. Ripping off the Mac GUI, and then going on to bully, absorb and run out of business countless smaller enterprises through strong-arm legal / financial tactics.
