Succession Planning, Mentorship, and the Dangers of Extreme Power
Explore the historical significance of succession planning using the analogy of a football quarterback mentoring a rookie, focusing on kings, queens, princes, and princesses. The chapter goes on to discuss the importance of sharing power inspired by the unique case of the five good emperors, including Antoninus and Marcus Aurelius, and warns of the dangers associated with extreme wealth and power through examples like Elon Musk and the implications of a life devoid of struggle.
