   I wonder if the actual "good businessmen" are the ones that aren't in the cultural spotlight, and that are in said spotlight are just charletons and con arstists. :blobfoxthinkgoogly:

     The true richest people in the world are not the Gates and Bezos and Musks ... the ones with the most power keep their wealth distributed and their names away from public scrutiny.

     @djsumdog @tk the decent people usually aren't constantly in the news over scandals and typically prefer to hide from everyone, from what i can tell

     @icedquinn @djsumdog So basically, as soon as they're "famous" we should eye them with scrutiny? :blobfoxthinkgoogly:

     Well I was thinking of the secrets leaders of old families like the Rockefellers, McArthurs, Carlyles, etc. The dozens of people at Bohemian Groove that don't end up as public figures .. so, probably not decent people (although I guess there could be a few). Just people who push an idea for the world by shifting their wealth behind the scenes.

     @tk@bbs.kawa-kun.com especially true if you consider peace of mind as a form of wealth!
