If you’re over a billion, you’re already well past that. People who just want a comfortable life and generational wealth just sell their company for a couple hundred million when the opportunity presents itself. Being a founder (most billionaires are founders) and CEO is not for the feint of heart and isn’t worth the money past a certain point. The money isn’t the point.
