I'm not interested in power in the conventional sense. I'm interested in having the power to fund my bigger goals. The subs are intended to fund my bigger goals. Money is just a tool, not really an end goal for me. I don't need millions and billions for myself, but it would definitely be nice to be financially independent while I go about achieving my bigger goals.

My bigger goals are hopefully going to be even more extraordinary. We shall see. I'm not done achieving my medium term goals yet, which will enable those bigger goals. Hopefully soon, though.

What are your bigger goals, if you may share what they are of course?

My bigger goals are to be able to make a bigger positive impact on the world. What they are specifically, I'll keep to myself for the time being. Suffice it to say that I'll need to be at least a multi-millionaire to accomplish even one of them.

Every time i am a better person to someone where in other time i would be a dick, that person happiness is yours too. I want to do just that, impact people so much that i can multiply the number of goodness in this world, changing it one person at a time.

He probably should be though- at least as a reward to himself. Bring value to the world to recieve value.

He definitely should Just pointing out the big impact he already does, but it does not exclude the big wealth creation, which is nice and will provide a freedom that most human beings don't have. I am certainly looking to achieve both.
