Whenever I hear one of these tech bro oligarchs say something like this, all I can think is “What did your parents do to you?” Like, what broke you? Why aren’t you in therapy? Straighten your shit out and become a decent human.
Being rich is directly harmful towards your psyche, because if you’re rich you’re used to getting your way, always. Meaning you simply won’t do the introspection that people who fall into dark places or hit the bottom might
I’d genuinely argue that being rich stunts your development
Id say it stunts you development of empathy, sympathy, and your ability to accept and learn healthy , cheap coping mechanisms when youre ‘stuck’. (like seeing a psychologist if you can afford it or becoming better and better at a hobby you enjoy or just finding a friend to unload with)
But it DEFINITELY doesnt stunt your development of access tp nutrition, developing political connections and politcial persuasion, health care, legal protections, education access, and pretty much everything else not related to your mental health lol.

They become insta narcissists when they surround themselves with yes men.
