Marilyn Monroe is a good example. She was so successful, but obviously the end results were cataclysmic, because she committed suicide.

hitler and stalin were very successful (obviously ultimately they weren't).  i would consider what they did disastrous.

Capitalism's greatest succes is catastrophic.

The French Revolution is a good example of success as disastrous.

No, she's actually a bad example, because not only is her suicide debatable, one can't state with any certainty that her success drove her or played a part in it.

That's probably the best example.

You can play that battle in Rome TW, it's fucking hard though, even on easy to win. But then again, you're not suppose to win.

Well yeah, success can make you strive to go further, that's obvious. But she still killed herself in the end.
