The 70-year-old’s official cause of death is still under investigation, but the coroner said “blunt force trauma is evident” from the crash.

    seroiusly… are they just that bored with life?

    I’ve got an idea. the ultimate survival adventure! for 5 million, I’ll drop you off on the Great Pacific Garbage Patch (you know… the island of trash…) wearing nothing but a speedo. and leave.

    for an extra million, I’ll give you a spiffy knife.

      It’s not so much that they’re bored, although that’s probably how they frame it to themselves.

      For some people, it’s that to be that rich you have to ignore a lot of suffering and inequality. I think that takes a toll on your mental health if you don’t constantly distract yourself, hence all the thrill-seeking/chaotic behavior and drug use.

      For other people, it’s that after having a lifetime of no one ever denying them anything, or facing any consequences, they genuinely start to think they can truly do [whatever] they want.

      I do imagine Chuckie Cheese and Six Flags get boring quickly with that kind of money.

      If I had the money I would absolutely be racing cars all around the world. It has nothing to do with boredom and everything to do with actually being able to afford doing what you want to do.
