Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

...and slash regulations. I know this has always been their goal but damn. He doesn't even need anything more, he has almost everything money can buy, and he thought, "ok, I have to try to buy the government".

When you have this much money, the life is just a game

You know how when you cheat in video games to give yourself unlimited money and then go do whatever the fuck you want all the time because it doesnt matter? That's life as a billionaire.
Nothing, and i mean nothing is off-limits.

Nah, this is somewhat of exaggeration. You still work within the legal framework.

It's true that with money comes power, but it's not a god mode.
