I've heard someone call it billionaire brain rot. I think at some point you end up with so much money and not enough people telling you no, that it literally changes your brain.
Seems likely.
Imagine never hearing the word "No." as a complete sentence ever again in your life.
Or when you do just assuming you can override them eventually
We had a guy like that at work, he said basically "how far above you do I have to go to get what I want"
That's not a bad power to have if you use it for good
He wanted a second laptop dock for home when we had limited supply and not everyone had one yet
