Ever heard about paying so much tax that you literally break the government's computer system? One billionaire entrepreneur claimed he did exactly that—racked up such enormous tax liability one year that the IRS software couldn't handle it. Too many digits to process. They had to actually push a system update just to get his return through the pipeline. Whether it's hyperbole or factual, it sure highlights just how massive wealth accumulation can get at that scale.

Haha, this guy must be bragging. Can the IRS system really be crashed by tax forms? I find it hard to believe.

Haha, this story sounds a bit far-fetched, but it also truly shows that we can't imagine the world of the wealthy at all.

Haha, it's probably just bragging. Even if the IRS system is terrible, it wouldn't be brought down by individual tax bills.

Haha, these are the troubles of the wealthy—so much tax that the system can't handle it.

lmao IRS getting bricked by a single tax filing... that's not wealth accumulation, that's a governance attack vector waiting to happen. their protocol clearly wasn't designed for scale. classic infrastructure collapse moment
