This is the part about wealthy people that I just love. If muh investment pays off, f-off society, I was smart and made a wise investment. I deserve to keep 100% of the proceeds. But when things go south, "Save meeeeeeeeee, you [society/regulators] shouldn't have let me go through with it". Then we're back to the socialism they say they hate so much and that they lobby their own money to deny to the common folk.
