All billionaires got to their position through dirty work
All billionaires got to their position not by fair means at all. At some stage during their career, they did some kinda dirty work to get to where they are now. Whether it be through bribery, extortion, blackmail, threatening or even through criminal alliances.

Being rich requires screwing people up. I wonder how these billionaires can live their dark and soulless lives till their death bed...

What about the likes of Paris Hilton and other billionaire kids.

What are they guilty of? Inheritance?

I have always believed , always since my awakening to the awareness of certain subjects that is , that two Paticular words are red flags , but I'd also like to say that I firmley believe that there's an exception to every rule of thumb , so to say. Not many , but a few.

Red flag words , Billionaire & Philianthropist

I mean it's not like they haven't shown us or "spelled out" how it really is, in millions of diffrent movies , sitcoms , cartoons & comic books.

But getting back to the OPs original statement , when your at that level your effecting a lot of people's lives somehow , and does whatever it is effect anyone in a bad way is the question I think that has to be asked. That's why they pay lots of people to do lots of studies to try and figure out the scenarios most possible and side effects. So at that time it's up to the future billionaire to either , use his resources to hide and manipulate the facts in order to get it pass regulations or do they take the higher ground and stick to a moral code of ethics and pass on the deal and wait for one that dosnt include and bad side effects on masses of people. The opposite is what the goal should be. The truth is we see it every day on reality tv and everything else , the bottom line is , only the strong survive and you have to be willing to step on people and or stab them in the back in order to get to the top. Only the most cunning and manipulative people may apply & charisma goes a far way. A really good candidate has charisma and a really good memory , that's basically it I think. No need for brilliant thoughts or wisdom , just an ability to Remeber and be charismatic , that plus no morals or concern for other people will get you very far in this world. One of my favorite sayings is some old middle eastern proverb I once heard or read somewhere ,

"A Camel will make it through the eye of a needle before a billionaire makes it to heaven"

By having real control over their lives and the lives of others.

By having real world power, real world influence, real world ability to create.

By being very attractive to the opposite sex.

and if that don't always cut it - the orgies and top class blow your mind, best sex possible on earth hookers probably ease the pain on the darker days.
