So this isn’t at all in response to what you wrote or this specific situation, but your comment spurred this out of me regardless, so feel free to ignore.
To clarify, the small business owners that he regularly screws aren’t “greedy,” they’re jumping at a chance to grow their business. I fell for this trap once, the billionaire even flaunted to me about how he was in the process of suing his former partners because they “screwed him.” Well, I wanted so badly for the deal to be real (because it would mean growing my business to the point that I could hire on employees, talking maybe a dozen or so $22/hour jobs that would have meant solidifying the business. I could finally invest in some much needed machinery, find a better location… so many things I wanted to do with that sale) that I ignored all the red flags. Ended up getting royally screwed, lost everything. Business, assets, all of it. Gone.
Chalk it up to inexperience, and naivety of trusting a billionaire to operate in good faith and in accordance to the contract he signed (and to a greater extent naivety that our justice system worked for poor people). But greed? I wouldn’t call it that.
