Consider the fact, that the publicly richest citizen on Earth, as well as one of the people behind one of the largest financial transaction sites, may have genuinely already concluded that, as the history of politics among other things have shown, that the Earth/humanity may simply be unsavable, for whatever reasons they find.
He has a lot of talent at his disposable, and presumably information to a decent bit of otherwise locked away studies/reports. Do I think he is correct? Perhaps not, but my nor your opinion really matters.
If he's made the decision shits truly FUBAR, ala Foundation, then leave him alone while he works on what he may genuinely believe to be a shot at surviving the FUBAR long-term.

- sangnoir 5y agoThe publicly richest citizen on Earth doesn't believe that at all - in fact, he believes earth is savable, and is the best home for humans and should be kept pristine by performing all (polluting) manufacturing in space. Sure, it's not as romantic as "Let's colonize Mars", but IMO, its a lot more practical. Not polluting earth is far easier than terraforming Mars
