    Why would anyone wake up at half 5 if they didn’t have to? You only wake at half 5 if you have to. You may find the odd person who likes being up that early but 99% of people would want to get up at a proper time.

      The difference is that workers have to get up at 5am to keep their housing, food, healthcare, etc. Billionaires get up whenever they want, and some might want to get up at 5am.

      Well, some of them are psychopaths, and definitely outside of the middle 99% of societal norms. There are also those who think getting 4 hours of sleep per night doesn’t affect their judgement, but who are they to say? I think we had one off those in the White House, but such claims are as suspect as any of the others (like being wealthy.)

      5am is not that early.

        It is if your second job, which you need because your soul-crushing full-time job doesn’t pay the bills, ends at midnight.

        The reality of the struggle which too many people face every day can’t possibly be relatable to any billionaire on this planet.

        The 24 hour clock is relative. And 5am is early, relative to when you go to sleep. Also, the sun’s not out. For most people, that’s too early.
