You may be on to something there, though some of the quieter ones I have names for, like the Mercers or the Waltons, do seem miserable from what I know about them.

Still, if those are outliers, unless the quiet capitalists are secretly richer than their loudest and most obnoxious counterparts, I can't help but wonder why the richest among them are also the loudest and most miserable.

The richest and most powerful of them seem preoccupied with trying to escape the world that they currently rule, whether through space colonialism or "waking up from the simulation" or the like.
