I said personal sacrifice, Heinlein style. This translates to dangerous civil service, not wealth. That is explicitly the kind of thing that people like bezos and the other self obsessed types avoid at all costs. It can't be bought, it can't be passed down and it REQUIRES a risk of death.

Read starship troopers.

I had no idea what that meant. It's definitely better than wealth.

it can't be passed down and it REQUIRES a risk of death.

In the middle Roman Republic, serving in an office with imperium required 10 years of military service. Not bad, is it?

Read starship troopers.

Is the movie any good?

The movie was produced by a moron who outright hated the book, to the point that they didn't read past the second chapter, to the point that he claimed the book was about fascism. It was meant to be a parody of the book, but failed at it.

It's not a bad movie, but it does not in any way serve as an adequate replacement for the book. You will not get the intended message through the movie.

Good to know. I'll skip the movie.
