My girlfriend met my dad over thanksgiving. He's now in his mid 70s, grew up extremely poor, son of immigrants, but ended up making mid six figures through brains and hard work and raised 4 children very well. A few of his siblings did better than that. She grew up rough and is very street smart. She said to me after "he has this look in his eyes that something is unfinished". I mentioned it to him a week later and somehow he responded "I always wanted to be king". I think your second line is a bit unfair of a statement to make - most people may reach your own conclusion, but that doesn't mean it's "correct". Caesar chose to cross his rubicon instead of bowing out of the game - he simply made that decision.
