Of course. Based on history to date, wealth and power do not lead to
immortality but do make it extremely unlikely to be exposed to wage
slave labour. Given that we old white guys aren't going to be here for
more than a few more decades, it makes sense to use our wealth for
shorter term gains and how else can the great unwashed be kept occupied
without drugs and guns? You should have thought this through before
rushing to reply.
