>correlation between wealth and ruthlessness

Any numbers to support this? Or you just believe so?

How many billionaires can I name that fit the label "ruthless"? How many are there that don't?

Maybe not Gates, but Steve Ballmer. Larry fricken' Ellison. Terry and TC Gou. Koch Brothers. Musk & Bezos. The list goes on and on.
