I would think after the first 3 or 4 billion, you're good. But no single person needs $117 billion. What do you buy with that kind of money? You don't need 18 houses, or 26 Bentleys that you'll never live in or drive. You don't need a yacht the size of a small city.

Or do you let it sit and collect interest? They just don't need this kind of money. They're bleeding us dry and it's all just to add more to the pile. Some day we're going to rise up against them and take back what's rightfully ours.
