No rich person is actually smart, they are all addicted to money and can’t get help over it. But their moves in the business world are all calculated, this guy is doing exactly what he wants to do and their goal is to make money not to lose them.

Lucky, or in Elmo’s case, born with a platinum spoon in his mouth thanks to daddy’s apartheid emerald mines.

That’s a very big part of it.

When fucknugget wanted to start a company he had plenty of credit either on his own, with his name, or both. If he blew 50k in an attempt he could try again next week.

If I blew 50k I’d be homeless.

It’s way easier to high stakes gamble when you won’t notice you lost.

They are lucky because the average person won’t even bother checking out on wikipedia how they become so rich

My guess: the same way the now called Meta benefited from stalling facebook and moving people to their other platforms like instagram. These marketers perceive everything in market terms, twitter is old and they need to release a brand new product to hook people up

I’m waiting for the next step when he tries to add features to make X whatever he envisions. Oh, those devs I fired. Hey, why can’t we hire anyone? No one wants to work.

Money are an addiction just like smoke, sex or drugs. If you can’t cope with being addicted to gold at the end of the day you are dumber than some kids
