net worth of their family is 200m+ and holy fuck just spending an hour with this guy made me reassess everything I thought I knew.

Yeah I've met a few CEOs worth 10m-150m and some of them are cucks to their wives and kids.

My current CEO dropped dead of a heart attack at 58 a few days ago. Based on that info alone you could probably find out who it is.

Pretty nice guy but very heads down in his work. Died having not lived life to its fullest. 1.6M USD house with 30k property tax.

I want to believe but even thats had some doubts cast on it for me now after spending time with richguy, my minds been racing.
I always try to consider the widest possible perspective with every investment, when we dig into the details of the chainlink solution it should work and there is an elegance to their take on smart contracts but looking at the token itself we are all buying, there is something very wrong at play here.
some this year ended up with loans, working overtime, moving all savings into link, many with large exposures yet still only 10-20k stacks. Massive fucking efforts put in to accumulate, a lot of labor is behind this, yet serge printed 350million out of thin air, something feels very wrong with this, hes going to give away millions more tokens than any one of us have wagecucked to accumulate for nothing

should add that the richguy influence on chainstink thoughts relate to the value of labor.
im self employed, I build out security systems for homes/companies, basically just networking. normally im ok.about telling people this as I consider it somewhat worthy of respect, its better than most situations, but richguy just looked at me puzzled and asked why wouldnt I just hire somebody to do the work for me, then hire sales staff to find them jobs, if I know everything about security networks then its easier to just tell workers what to do, then I can go do something other than running cable.
I know its not the greatest insight that one but its how all our time together went, almost everything we talked about from politics, business, psychology, the future etc had a similar response. on fucking everything his world view was bigger, I thought I was doing ok with a middle class income and home, a work van and car, this rich cunt doesnt even have a car ffs, he hasnt driven himself anywhere in 10 years and rides motorbikes around singapore and here in seattle.

I met a guy worth ~700M once. He's like 72 years old though, so I doubt he will get much enjoyment out of it, especially since hes been smoking the whole time. The thing is, he didn't have more than 50M liquid until his business got bought out by a large private equity firm, so he lives in a house worth maybe 12M or so. Nothing too special considering the town has a median income of like 260K.

I think the dude is shocked, he doesn't even know what to do with this money.

With one instant click of the mouse I purchased 20 bitcoins of this Flo token

It was in mid November and my purchase was completed for an average of 800 but caused a spike to 1000.

Every day I sleep with glee just knowing that in a few months the 20 btc of Flo I purchased will be worth an easy 150-200+ btc.

Some days I dream of it going to $100mm cap and my stack rising from 20 to 1000 btc. I slap myself back to reality and tell myself that making 250 btc on one trade is more than enough to buy curry for this entire forum for one full month.

I worked on a waterfront estate this summer up in Maine, owned by a former wall street mogul. He has checks lining the office worth north of 100 million. Well into his 70s now. I was welcomed into the family rather quickly. Just beautiful people all around. Both him and his wife were sharp as a tack, she had done all of his accounting for him and was fluent in 5+ languages. I had conversations with them my own parents would never be able to entertain. It was sad in a way. But comforting.

Beautiful grandchildren. All extremely well raised, highly intelligent, and physically gorgeous, like legitimately model tier. None had social media either which was fascinating. One of the granddaughters was clearly interested in me but I felt ashamed of the fact that she was 20 and myself 24.

They all have trust funds setup. Money is spent fairly frivolously. But at heart they are not much different from the rest of us, besides knowing a freedom and absence of stress that 99.999% of us will never experience.

Just felt like sharing; it was a very enjoyable few months of my life. Maybe I'll return.

She would often find herself pool side conveniently as I was cleaning it. And I once walked up the stairs of the house one morning as she was naked. I think she was really into me as well. We hit it off in conversation one day. One of those things you come to regret your entire life.

She's back at uni now, down in Miami. Living the high life, surrounded by chads. I'm not sure if I'll go back this summer. Almost feels shameful in a way. It's typically a job for high schoolers. And here I am at 25.

No shame in pursuing the 20 year old daughter. By accepting you into his house and treating you like his child, he probably thinks you're worthy and is pretty much giving you the permission. Don't pursue it like a lowlife though, obviously. Ask his blessing and take his daughter out to a nice place for dinner and have her home relatively early. The wholesome family way. You can make something out of this, anon. Don't let this chance pass only to pursue some 21st century dime-a-dozen "liberated" woman. We all know what comes of that.
