Oohh I know a guy exactly like this. Moderately rich, moderately successful in business and money and power is literally all he cares about and money is all he has. He has kids he doesn't love, he only cares about "his legact' and "his dynasty"

He's built and crashed like a hundred start-ups and a few became moderately successful so he has momey

He beliefs he is universally loved, but everyone including his kids hate h because he's an insufferable asshole who uses money to control people around him

He's obsessed with what people think about him and -again- thinks he's super loved, but he's super insecure as well, so posts pictures showing off his body building results to everyone but he pictures are AI enhanced which makes it all the sadder. He's obsessed with staying young and not dying so he takes these special stat young IV drips, that sort of shit.

Did I mention his relentless narcissism and psychopathic behavior where he loves to tot with people's lives, just to fuck with them? Family included, if course

He is a sad little man, really, whi one day will be buried in a golden casket but here will be nobody to say goodbye

I was legit waiting for the reveal, with a "that sad little man? <INSERT_TECH_OLIGARCH>"

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 2 points 8 hours ago

He is exactly the same as these tech oligarchs. He possibly is a multi millionaire, I know he has a reasonable amount of money but watching him try to look like these billionaires all the time is just hilariously sad. He continually buys shits that's too expensive and that he doesn't need and ends up selling it months later.at this point, money is all he has. He has no people that want to be around him (with the exception of a new young sexy bomb gold digger he acquired recently) he has no real power, even his kids hate him yet he keeps dumping more money than he's earning so I'm assuming he'll die with nothing

It's all of them.

Made me think he was describing that one dude who has been on magazines, being written about because he takes infusions of his son's blood believing it will keep him young.

But which one that has been on magazines and had a phase where they infused the blood of the young? Idk, what you're saying is just not very specific 🤷‍♂️

I used to work for the female version of this guy.
