It's odd seeing someone who likely isn't stupid just not get it. It's like they put a 13 year old from a wealthy family in a 30 year old businessman's body. He's going to get Fed-raped in a courtroom at some point. When you make a vast amount of money, 99.999% chance you did some legally questionable things along the way. "Behind every great fortune lies a great crime" wasn't coined on accident.
How to be loaded and not get a courtroom stomping by the Feds:
- Pretend like you feel a little sorry when you do something despicable, like gouging people for an AIDS drug you didn't even develop.
- Donate some money to charity, making sure there are photo ops and your PR team blitzes that shit out far and wide.
- Spread some money around political campaigns. This is the most important one.
- Maybe don't post every ridiculous thing you buy on social media, then go out of your way to taunt everyone who posts something negative in response.
The rules are pretty simple. Buy off government officials (that shit isn't even illegal anymore, thanks supreme court!) and pretend like you are a decent human. Emphasis on pretend, since you are actually a sociopathic narcissist with massive insecurity issues.
If you make yourself a punching bag, elected officials will be happy to score some free points off you.
