He's eager for anything to help him gain more wealth, because he doesn't have enough yet and enough is never enough.

That's the thing I think I'll die never understanding. I really don't see the point of being on your death bed with plenty of leftovers.

Some people have a really backwards understanding on the core philosophy of "being successful in life". Like, he seems to lack the ability to grasp the literal meaning of that concept and so will always be doomed to fail at achieving anything with it. It just makes sense to understand he has a psychological deficit. I'd be empathetic if he weren't such a catastrophic burden to everyone.

Considering he is not the only billionaire behaving like this, in fact I couldn't think of a single billionaire who doesn't act like this, then the behaviour seems to be some sort of disease transmitted by extreme wealth.
