    When people get older they stop caring about their current life and start thinking legacy. Tom Brady didn’t play his last two-three seasons in the NFL because he needed the money, or fame… he did it to prove a point/build his legacy/brand.

    Bill Gates is a massive piece of shit, but there was a point he left Microsoft and started to care more about his legacy. He gave millions to fight diseases in Africa, and pretty much white washed his image… if it wasn’t for Jeffery Epstein… (but seriously Bill Gates is pretty horrible person his time at Microsoft show who he really was, also there’s a history of sexual harassment, as well as just adultry with staff under him, there that people forget about). This happens to almost every person over time, but it’s the truly rich who have the ability and luxury to realy decide their legacy.

    Trump is pure ego… But I almost guarantee that he wants books to be written about him as a great president by someone. He doesn’t want to be seen as Nixon and vilified by almost everyone.

    Piss off the Republicans, and he’ll have no one singing his praises.
