The mass accumulation of money. Once you have your needs met.. and your desires... what use is the rest of it? Just to stand on a mountain and yell I'm king of the hill? I know its about power, but even that I don't get. His mindset is so far different from mine i don't think I could understand if I lived to be 100. He doesn't give a crap about his kids, he's gonna be dead soon... gods willing! ... what's he gonna do... have them pile it in his coffin so he can take it to the grave with him?
