    What about non-millionaire/billionaire people with stalkers? People have violent Ex’s, violent coworkers - and rarely, but still happens - violent strangers.

    Poor people have lives that are threatened. Domestic abuse/murder is all too common all across the world.

    So why is she more valuable?

      Those people can carry guns and if they can afford it then they can hire armed guards too.

      I don’t make the economic rules but if you can’t afford armed security then yeah, you won’t have armed security I guess.
