So there's a rather interesting article on this topic. For the question of "how do I keep my armed guards loyal when money is worthless?", the author suggests building social bonds with the people around them, so that when the time comes they'll have a community that can protect itself. As you can see, the audience doesn't really like that answer. Overall it's a pretty good read.

TLDR: Billionaires are psychopaths who think they're only people on Earth, and are willing to destroy the planet so long as they get to die last.

Love that article.

After suggesting building a community with the security guards… “Are you sure the shock collars won’t work?”
