      There wouldn’t be enough rich people to buy all the excess that gets produced. Even if you’re a trillionaire there’s only so many phones/cars/shoes/watches etc. that you want to buy.

            they don’t need to “become” rich. they ARE rich already, and when we are gone it’ll be a totally different world economy. It’ll be a 1% utopia where money has essentially no meaning anymore.
