He was an old school elitist, believing himself to be nobility.
He attached himself to power and did all he could to acquire it for himself while trying to close the doors to others.
In all his actions he was either flouting his wealth (why he looked for wreck and bought tanks) or was trying to keep the club exclusive.
I'm not just talking about guns either.
He believed in a joint giant enterprise/government tyranny with himself near the top.
He believed that he was rich because he was smarter and better than everyone else and that he should rule over others.
