My cousin and I were talking about a particularly rich acquaintance, my cousin said that when you have several billion, it's like everything is free. $40M house? Free. Spend $100k on a vacation? Free. When you can't really touch your balance and don't have to think about it, it's all free.
I know people w credit cards that just always work. They've likely never seen a bill.

I used to tell people that Ross Perot with his Billion ran for President on the equivalency of $60.00 to a person with $1000 in the bank.
