the super rich

The Super-rich 

Wealthy people, rich men 
find sitting on a heap of money only
is not fulfilling
Therefore, many wealthy men dabble in 
something else, like car racing or dabbling
in gift cards promising a large sum of money  
For the "richest man in the world" interest 
is political, helping to shape the future 
Elon Musk is the person who thinks he has
made the right choices, helping Trump 
His adoration for Trump, based on the hero 
worship and not about sound politics 
He is an ingénue that makes him take side
even when he might be chasing 
a white elephant.
Then again, should he succeed, he will get
blood on the tooth and dream big dreams
Since he is not born in the USA, change 
the law and become president of the USA
In his mind, he is a wizard, a dreamer 
who has had his fantasies come true
Since he tends to be autocratic 
behavior might end up in the fascist camp  
That is not what I wish on a potentially nice 
person, like Elon Musk
