What was wrong with world's 8 wealthiest persons?

“In 1923, eight of the wealthiest people in the world met.
Their combined wealth, estimated, exceeded the wealth of the government of the United States.
These men knew how to make a living and accumulate wealth.
25 years later.
 
1. President of the largest steel company, Charles Schwab, died bankrupt.
2. President of the largest gas company, Howard Hubson, went insane.
3. One of the greatest commodity traders, Arthur Cutton, died insolvent.
4. President of the New York Stock Exchange, Richard Whitney, was sent to jail.
5. A member of the President’s Cabinet, Albert Fall, was pardoned from jail.
6. The greatest “bear” on Wall Street, Jessie Livermore, committed suicide.
7. President of the world’s greatest monopoly, Ivar Krueger, committed suicide.
8. President, Bank of International Settlement, Leon Fraser, committed suicide.
 
They forgot to make a life! Just made Money!
