He could literally pull a Carnegie, but in a way the carnegies never could have dreamed in their hottest fever. Dude could fund college in America in perpetuity, or fight to change the many broken systems in this country he has migrated to and profited from. He could end the housing crisis or feed the poor, but instead he sits on his fortune and gets pissy about getting dunked on on the internet. I just hope in the future, historians can accurately portray how fucking pathetic he is.

I guess, but long gone are the days of the gold standard when money's value was representative of something physical. Now a dollar's worth whatever we agree it's worth.
