    Call me medieval, but I don’t understand these people… If I somehow had a ploy to make that kind of money in one shot I’d make like a bandit and vanish… Then retire. That kind of money is never work again money. I could retire at 30 and die in my 80s a rich man.

      See and that is why I almost pitty such people. They never learned how to be a normal person. How to be satisfied with what you have. But I did say almost. Cause they make the world a shithole for the rest of us.

      Cause you’re thinking like an unhappy poor person. Not like someone who has the entire world at their disposal to consume and exploit.

      But that woman in the photo looks like she loves her job & loves the tech industry, she will show up gladly every day and do whatever it is she does to earn that 30 million per year. In fact she would probably show up gladly every day and do her work regardless of how much they pay her, which makes me wonder why they’re even paying her at all, we don’t get paid to do things we’re good at & enjoy!
