I do wonder, let's think about that. People can change, 500 years is a long time. One could argue living that long may tame or completely change him. Get bored

I do wonder, let's think about that. People can change, 500 years is a long time. One could argue living that long may tame or completely change him. Get bored of doing what you did the past 200 years and try something else.
We do have to understand that humans are humans after all. Eventually you will get bored of the same nonsense day in and day out and do something else.
- whythre 3y agoThis seems incredibly naive. You seem to think a longer lifespan will somehow make a brutal tyrant more caring, but I think the cruel will likely just get more monstrous with age. A long life means power must be held that much more tightly: what good is your near-immortality if rebels or rivals dethrone and kill you?
- mrguyorama 3y agoAh yes, surely the Robber Barons would have eventually got "bored" of being in control of all money and politics. Surely that would eventually be something they don't want! Just as silly as the people who somehow think a billionaire can't be bought and so make better politicians. Surely they became a billionaire because they have a reasonable relationship with money right? Surely you or I can relate to how they think of money!
