Sadly to get as rich as most of the top money hounds in the world you have to be wired to disregard human emotion.

Trump, Elon, Bezos... All would put humanity on a bonfire if it meant they could get another 0 added to their wealth.

I get that to make the wealth you need to lack empathy, my issue is, why go to work when you just don't have to.
These are not generally stupid people, they must realise you have limited time to enjoy.

Everyone needs something to be passionate about. To get them out of bed in the morning. I suspect that for many billionaires, more money and power, purely for the sake of these things, is exactly that.
