I wonder what kinds of boredom, unfamiliar to us resource-limited kind, do billionaires suffer from. It seems it's the same things all over and over again, only on a different scale - probably the closest to the boredom experienced widely in the Culture.
Science, it seems, is ultimately the only reliable escape from boredom. Until everything is solved - any estimation when we might call the project called 'Science' "Done!"?
"All science is either physics or stamp collecting." -Ernest Rutherford
If you get bored of being a billionaire, give away all your money.
In fact, give it to me.
