Well…. perhaps.  But Eliezer is one of the very genuinely nonmaterialist people you ever met.  

I try and try to help that young man come to his senses with that malady, but he is just that way.  He hasn’t changed all that much since we met him back at the NanoTech conference when he was 18.

I have no doubt he really feels what he wrote, and doesn’t even care about buttloads of money.  Apathetic!  Towards money! 

He and I are just different that way.
