If you are a very wealthy or influential individual, you are essentially trapped into certain sets of behavior. You can still relate to other people, but the fact that you could solve most of their problems on an individual basis with an instant donation that would take you all of thirty seconds creates a gulf that can't be reached over. You can do a variety of activities, but these probably feel much less interesting than doing things that have an influence over a very large number of people. If you are, say, a CEO of a successful company that CEO role will be the only source of a certain type of feeling that can't be achieved elsewhere. I'm certain you are right: within their technocratic circles, they probably make far less wholesome and family-friendly pronouncements about life. But it's not fundamentally contradictory, just like a person can be crippled by an addiction that turns them into a monster on a regular basis while remaining normal, wise and approachable the remainder of the time.
