#79 | The psychology of wealth

"The opportunity to become super rich has only been around for 20 years."

What do Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates have in common? All three have made it to the top of the world's richest people through their own efforts: they are self-made billionaires.
For Prof. Dr. Thomas Druyen, this is a phenomenon of the last 20 years - and one that will change the way wealth is made in the future. 

"You have to be able to earn money with ethical behavior, then the world will change."

Prof. Dr. Thomas Druyen is an expert in future psychology and wealth. In this episode of SMP LeaderTalks, he talks to Georgiy Michailov about the changing nature of wealth and the ethical challenges of our time. He shows how the gap between the middle class and the super-rich is widening - and why an intact middle class is vital for the survival of any democracy.

"Artificial intelligence is the biggest change in human history."

The two also talk about the opportunities, hopes and risks behind artificial intelligence and Druyen explains why he thinks more of prosilience than resilience.
