One possible reason why rich people do this, is that they like making money, which got them rich in the first place.

Liking to make money and liking to enjoy money are different traits, I suppose.

I get that. My dad was never that excited about making money, but he still described TurboTax as his favorite video game. Sometimes you just want to optimize the number, no matter what the number is.


It's really interesting how people can be so different, lol. One look at TurboTax and I feel deep existential dread, like it goes "deductions" to "heat death of the universe" in a few form fields.
