There's a meaningful distinction between happy and comfortable. He might lead a very comfortable life but I have to agree with GP that he doesn't /seem/ to be a very happy person.
Of course, I (and you) say this from the position of people who don't know the man in person. It's all baseless backbiting.
- ALittleLight 6y agoHe always seems smiling and laughing in all the interviews I've seen him in. I know he has children plus a partner (and ex-wife). He's super rich, famous, gets to do what he wants, likes newspapers so he bought a big one, likes rockets so he is giving his own rocket/space company a go... Obviously this isn't dispositive to say he's happy, but I don't think it proves he's unhappy either. Not wanting your workers to unionize hardly seems like proof of an unhappy life.
- cies 6y ago> likes newspapers so he bought a big one Most ultra rich buy news companies. It's part of your portfolio to ensure you have maximum say in the political decision process. See "Manufactured Consent", there's a cool animated video explaining it on YT. > Not wanting your workers to unionize hardly seems like proof of an unhappy life. Indeed. It just shows you are above the law, and a authoritarian/oppressive.
