001 | 「继承之战」 :无法背叛的父亲,和无法拯救的帝国 The War of "Succession"

【聊了什么】

你眼里的哪些0.001%富有的人是什么样子的?是像钢铁侠、蝙蝠侠一样把钱变成超能力,致力于解决人类无法解决的庞大问题?还是像《亿万(Billions)》里一样运筹帷幄、和对手下45维象棋?还是像2016年一个橘黄色的人带着他bling bling的孩子们入主白宫之后大家突然意识到的——有钱人可能也很蠢,而且还不去看心理医生。

What’s your impression of the Über-rich? Is it “my super power is rich'' superhero Bruce Wayne? Or reckless entrepreneur like Elon – we mean Iron Man Tony Stark? Or 4D-chess grandmaster Bobby Axelrod of Billions? Or like us, you realized after an orange man settled himself with his glamorous children in the White House — that rich people can be stupid, and are in despirate need of a psychiatrist.
