is that no matter how much wealth and power he has amassed, it won't stop his body from aging and deteriorating right out from under him. Then he'll die and rot and there is nothing he can do about that. Even the kings of antiquity who tried to take it all with them couldn't escape their fate.

It's universal and vast sums of money sunk into embalming and cryo storage will only delay it a little.
