Can you deny trading is fun/challenging?

Do you know of any who "trade" because it is a thrill or a challenge, and are billionaires? Personally? If not, unless they have given a specific reason as to why they do it, we do not know their reasons. You are assuming. Maybe those paper billionaires are in serious trouble with their hedge funds, and are trying desperately to not lose their shit. Oh, wait, hedge funds...It is not THEIR money, it is OPM.

Overnight, calm down, the question is, they themselves are rich beyond measures, WHY DO THEY CONTINUE to trade?

To make more sure as many have mentioned, but they also mention its the challenge of figuring out the biggest puzzle and that money becomes simply a score tracker, when the term score is used, its basically is the same term used in games, challenges, competition, we cant say they are doing it because they got to pay their bills? can we? no because they have more than enough already to do so

The point I am trying to get at is you are asking unanswerable questions to everyone here. We don't really know why they do it.

Maybe pick up the phone, give them a call and ASK them why they do it. Would make for a great article.

I'd invest, but not trade aside from something to do. Not for the fun or the challenge. But that is just me.
