Lemma. A subsidiary theorem in an argument or proof.
If you're saying what I think you're saying, then yes....
As wealth increases, the wealthy's perceived value of the wealth decreases. Instead, they value the potential gains that the wealth can buy, more than the wealth itself.
IE. Rich bastards prefer optimal stats over saving (what they perceive to be "a measly") 5m creds.
If these are the words you are putting in my mouth.... then yeah, I agree.
As to "who" is considered to be a rich bastard (you named friggo and myself) the jury is still out, pending the definition of "rich".
For example, one could be credit/hath/gp rich, asset/equip/training rich, or cash flow/week rich... And once we've agreed on what type of rich we're talking about, then what is the monetary threshold for defining someone as "rich" vs "comfortable" vs "poor"?
Buuuuut this conversation is a bit of a rabbit warren, and it is probably more appropriate to discuss the definitions of rich and poor in the poor players club (IMG:[

Ps. For uncle's sake: my use of the term "rich bastard" here, is still not used an insult (IMG:[
