    Now imagine if you could eat 25 rich people and gain their assets!!!

    Then of course you’d be in line to be eaten next, but since you’ve been not-rich before, you could probably fool the ravenous hordes.

      This could get mathematically complicated. If I eat 25 people, who are each living the lifestyle that is 25 times the sustainable amount and take their assets, I would have the assets to live the lifestyle of 625 sustainable people. So I would have to eat another 600 people to make it sustainable, which would in turn make it unsustainable. A terrible paradox.
