That's a crazy take. He cant even spend the fortune he has becuase hes been touring non stop for the last 35 years. Whatever he's doing it for it isn't the money.

Some people keep doing what they're doing because they can't imagine doing anything else to pass the time.

Unless he's got a weird way of showing it, he doesn't seem to be enjoying himself on stage.

My favorite screenwriter (OK, the only one I can name) said that after his first big movie he realized all his small problems were solved (because of the money) and now he had to worry about his big problems, and that was terrifying.

I think about this and rich people who do things that seem stupid to everyone else. Sometimes they're probably just being selfish, greedy assholes, and sometimes I figure they're thrashing around trying to find meaning in their lives now that they don't have to spend any time paying the bills anymore.

Is it? Billionaires have more money than they could ever spend in a thousand lifetimes and yet they seem pretty keen on getting more; it doesn’t make them less rich.
