You are judging the book by its title.
...
You are just wrong about the concepts of the book. Criticizing without reading .

You're right about that, but because the concept seems to me to be bullshit. If I think the title of a book is bullshit, don't expect me to read it.
Buffet is one of the richests guy on earth. You won't reach him, comparing yourself with him will only lead to frustration.
Completely the opposite. I am, by far, the richest person in my family considering my ancestors. Of course I do not aspire to become Buffet, but if today I have a good net worth that does not stop growing, it is because I follow the ideas of those who, like him, do not stop accumulating capital. Today I am much calmer and happier with all the wealth that I continue to accumulate than if I had to calculate how to spend what I have in order to arrive with 0 when I calculate that I will die.
The world has progressed precisely because of the accumulation of capital that has been invested and passed on for generations. That is why today 8 billion people can live with living standards that were unimaginable only 100 years ago.
I think that some people are like that, they prefer to have wealth over spending it. They might wish to do both but they prioritize only one and in this case Warren Buffet prioritized wealth, that's why he was living a frugal life. Maybe all of these come from childhood traumas, ... So, I believe that behind people like Elon Musk, Waren Buffet and others, there is a childhood trauma that made them who they are today.
If I were Elon or Warren, I'd spend my life like Conor McGregor but wouldn't become an addict

In Buffet's case, it doesn't seem to be due to childhood trauma. Although it may be hard to believe, there are people who are happy without spending money on bullshit.
Besides the YOLO, the “Die with 0” and all the variants end up in many cases like what you say about McGregor, in rehab clinics or worse, dying of overdose.
