I like your phrasing, 'Catastrophically irresponsible.' I think when people get into extremely large figures of money, it loses all real meaning as 'This benefit in exchange for these consequences.' I think after a certain dollar amount that varies from person to person money starts becoming a moral, almost religious motivator, a prime purpose in justifying action. If I DON'T sacrifice these things, if I DON'T do these things, if I DON'T make these people happy, I let down my God(Money).
