Power and prestige. In the US the billionaire class is revered as the shining beacon. Everyone wants to be them and history tells them they can be. You just have to get lucky. Like winning the lottery.

That's fine but the Saudis have other plans.

Living in America they are loved and treated like celebrities. If they moved they would be feared not loved. Just not as fun a vibe.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct
