How come ultra rich porkies don't ever fuck with the market for shits and giggles just for fun or to form personal micro polities loyal to them? Like for example if I were super wealthy I'd buy entire blocks of city housing and only charge a dollar per month for rent. I'd make all the tenants worship me and form a cult around me for fun and I'd walk around the neighborhood dressed as Gaius Julie Caesar complete with a Praetorian guard and I'd host never ending block parties.
It sounds like fun I would do that how come porky never wants to have fun? Surely there is more to life than a bank account when you're super rich anyway?
They're too concerned about holding onto and growing their wealth. You gotta think in terms of natural selection in a market - the porkies who put wealth maximization above all else will out-rich the ones who just dick around with their money.

But earning the plebs' trust and love is a form of a capital in of itself.
Charles Green
This. The kinda mentality it takes to get that rich in the first place makes it so you wouldn't do that kind of stuff.
We all dream of doing stuff like this if we had big bucks, and we just might if we suddenly get a huge inheritance or win the lottery, but if you get rich in the way most people do you're guaranteed to be a no-fun person.

You sound like a breddy cool guy, I'd definitely let you extract my surplus value. Shame real porkies can't be as imaginitive and whimsical.
Josiah Foster
most of the richest people are only accumulating their money for the sake of accumulating money, they want to be the richest person like someone want to have the highest score in an arcade game

Because this idea of a super rich porky swinging around his dick and having absolute power is naive and foolish. Not even the porkiest porky has complete control over capital, everyone from prole to capitalist is subdued by it. It is tied up in all sorts of organizations and places, being kept in check by shareholders, politicians, bankers and so on.

Because owning assets under capitalism is not the same as owning land and titles under aristocratic societies, you don't have the same stability and certainty. Even if social mobility upwards or downwards continues to be nearly inexisting, with capitalism there's always the threat that a new crisis or something might kick you out of your throne. So they have to be somewhat conservative with money, invest wisely, pay people to manage their shit and just have boring Yacht parties with lots of cocaine.
Landon Foster
What is even the point of that? I can't understand it at all.
Surely there becomes a point where you can just kick back and stop worrying about money.
Charles Bennett
You can never stop worrying, because at any time someone or something might come and clear you out.
Andrew Scott
You have to understand that rich people live in their own bubble reality. The vast majority of them have never had any hardship monetarily at all. The classic example is Trump actually, the guy was born into money, and thinks that a million dollar loan is small. Trump's first interview in his whole life was for the presidency, who is in his 70s.
To someone in that situation, they are incapable ot understanding why people need help financially, it is simply beyond their understanding.
So why continue to make money? For pride's sake, that's all the reason that exists.

and there's the reason you're not super rich

It's more common than you think, but always calculated and never for shits and giggles.

This is why SWPL suburban dip shits aren't the .01% because if they ever got the money they'd blow it all by tanking the value of their properties, creating massive chaos and crime within its vicinity, spend all their investment funds on drugs and frivolities and then probably try to start a Socialist-Mega Block party Drug Cartel and end up either at the bottom of the ocean or dead from a drug overdose at 40. Seriously you're fucking dumb man

They don't need it anymore tho, mass media actively brainwashes people into believing whatever they like. Most modern market competition takes place in media outlets selling time slots for these messages.
