The Life of a Billionaire - The Greater Fools - Ep. 8
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to be a billionaire? Well this episode won’t help with that, but we do talk about the insane stuff only a billionaire can get away with. The game changing realization is that when television tries to mimic stupid stuff real-life billionaires do, they have to water it down because people won’t believe anyone would do something so crazy. We have our first “Bonus Fool” (trademark pending) Casey Larson joining Chris Gibbs, Michael Brazell, Adam Aldous and Sam Wilkinson this week. We talk about things like the driving habits of tech billionaires like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, hedge-fund owners that play poker with budgets bigger than some country’s GDPs, and add-ons you can buy for your yacht or house. Here are some links to these stories:
