Here's just two examples of rich people who recently bought homes on the coast while telling the plebs to fear the rising water levels:

Bill Gate's San Diego beach front home: https://nypost.com/2022/03/23/bill-gates-is-turning-43m-mans...

Obama's home on the coast of Martha's Vineyard (an island in the Atlantic): https://vineyardgazette.com/news/2019/12/04/president-obama-...

For wealthy people who can afford multiple properties, and to up and move whenever they please, why would rising sea levels matter to them? Both properties could collapse into a sinkhole tomorrow and it would be a mere annoyance. The fact they own them is no evidence they aren't aware that they might not be around in 50 years. For someone looking for a second property, closing on retirement, worrying about inheritance for their children, the thought process is entirely different.
