I think they know the grift won't last much longer, so they stockpile as much money has they can, while they can. Of course, no amount of money will save them from what could be coming, but the disease of greed doesn't allow them to see the big picture.

Meanwhile, most couldn't possibly spend all the money they grift. These are very defective human beings.
