Another delivery: "everyone admires a person who became a billionaire in a depression more than a good-times billionaire" There is a strong scenario of making a fortune out of depression: that is, vulturing and monetizing decay. A factory struggles? Buy it out for nothing, lay out everybody, scrap equipment for metals! People can't make ends meet? Micro-lend them at 200% interest! Local police grinds to a halt due to lack of funds? Murder @ Steal, you'll legalize your capitals later! Use chaos and pain to forcibly take every low hanging fruit, and there would be totalitarian dictators and serial murderers less hated than you. This all actually happened in ex-USSR in the 90-s.
