The Ironic Longevity of Narcissists
Episode Overview
Narcissists' long lives often lead to isolation and misery. They project stress onto others, avoiding emotional tolls. Illnesses like dementia strip them of manipulative powers. Their relationships crumble as they age. Karma catches up with them in the form of loneliness and dependency.
