gamification of business

There are four levels in the business game:

Money. Everyone works for money at first. 

Power. Once they have enough money, they start to seek more power. 

Fame. Once they have enough power, they start to seek attention outside business circles.

Despair. Once they have enough fame, they go into a despair mode.

Those who end up realising the game-like dynamics of the entire scheme either quit the game and find refugee in conservative values, or embrace the game and replay it by giving their wealth away or by making a drastic career change. The rest spiral into darkness.
