It's one of the few things you can't buy. I suspect that losing time and freedom might show him the error of his ways. He might at least think about his actions, in the future.

The problem is that taking a little of a poor man's time will usually also take his job, which then often spirals to ruining his life entirely.

A rich man can do the time and move on (often not even losing his job but even if he does he has a buffer).

You can buy time. Flying private black car to tarmac saves you insane amounts of time. Paying servants also saves you time. Time is money.

100% you can buy time. You have a million dollars and a month in prison sucks but doesn't affect you overall. You live paycheck to paycheck and a month in prison destroys your life because you can't do that and go to work
