Good luck to the billionaires in a real collapse scenario, when their security and support staff can decide that the billionaires are counterproductive, and vote them out of the survival bunkers.

Immediately turning on such a leader would be a bad move, because you'd then have to fight all the other traitors for your share of the loot.
