Do you truly imagine this means he has to live on a tiny island? With billions of dollars?

The man could easily maintain homes in wonderful places around the world and do whatever he wants with his life in any of them.

He's not going to regret this for even a minute.

He wont have to live in Singapore forever but that appears to be his plan at the moment. He's been there for quite awhile and seems to be loving it. It is a great place to be young, rich and good-looking. It's going to get old if he tries doing it for the rest of his life though. 10, 15, 20 years down the road is where that regret will kick in.

Sure there are plenty of other great places to live than the United States - but his career trajectory seems to be in tech. Thats where he is continuing to invest and put his time. All roads in that arena lead to California - a place he just voluntarily gave up the right to ever reside, work and do business in.

There are places other than California to do things in tech, believe it or not.

Facebook wasn't even founded in California, for example.

They re-located to California and are still based there today. What does that tell you about the point you are attempting to make?
