Adam Becker thinks some billionaires may be cynical, but Bezos's interest in space colonization since high school suggests to him that Bezos is not simply cynical.

“Maybe some of them are just being cynical, although there's sometimes evidence like with Bezos,”

“we know that he's always been very, very interested in colonizing space.”

“Because he's been talking about it since he was in high school,”

“but and so that suggests he's not just being cynical,”
