You know they would give you a deep discount, and the discounts would get bigger the more you bought. At the volumes you're talking about the economics would reverse themselves and they would be paying you to eat burgers, ending up with more money than you started with

and then two billion $1 burgers

The nouveau riche have a problem with holding onto money because the old money is already insulated from people that would try to steal from them. They've got generations worth of connections and networking that can give them recommendations on good staff.

What I"m saying is that I'd go talk with the richest person I know and keep it on the DL from everyone else that I have a billion bucks until my network is big enough that I can be insulated from everyone I don't want to deal with.

What if it turns out old money stay rich by scamming the nouveau riche?
