      Rich people as so unimaginative and foolishly selfish, if you did all of this the people of whichever country you bought would treat you like a god and defend you to the death. Benevolent rulers inspire loyalty.

        The power will go to his head when people start trying to assassinate him. He will go crazy looking for plotters and purge a bunch of people, establish secret police to look for them, and it will end as badly as every well intentioned moment in human history.

        This is human nature and we can’t stop it. People will try to kill him and his family and he will lose his mind because of it.

        Sorry to be a Debby downer.

          The technology already exists today for a leader to lead their people from a remote secure arcology orbiting the moon. Nobody’s done it, but we could. The only people that can reach you out there are entire countries and their militaries, or other people just as rich as you, and no matter who’s coming out there they aren’t going to sneak up on you.

      You need way less money for this plan than you think. I’m still working on the framework, but start doing some research into starting a non-profit apartment complex. I believe this will be the easiest way to create a foothold to save the world.

      People in homes (non-profit apartments), food in mouths (contracts with companies to become an internal job board for tenants + start moving grocery stores into the apartments), life enriched (entertainment, travel, work-life balance)

      These are the building blocks required for life, and providing them with a servant mindset will inspire people to expect that everyone should have these. It’s the same concept of “I had it this way [hard] when I was little, you should too”
