    I detest all this "I'm a billionnaire and I wake up at 4:30AM every morning and drink a nootropic infused green slime drink and then go on a 15 mile run because I understand the impotance of the #grind" bullshit, just once I want a billionnaire to do a fluff piece where they're like "I roll out of bed at 2PM and snort a giant line of coke and then spend the rest of the day golfing while making more in an afternoon than a small city full of normal people see in their entire lives, also fuck you" just for the fucking honesty.

          He should only be allowed to eat that at a private McDonalds where the staff gets paid 10k a day.

          edit: but it's still idiot high schoolers who do the job while high.

      I love how these articles don't point out that having this kind of lifestyle is also only accessible to the rich. Anyone else getting up at 4:30am for work probably dragged their ass into bed sometime around 10pm, exhausted and just finished cleaning the house from dinner and maybe having an hour or two to chill. They're then going to scarf down a bagel and burnt coffee before stumbling onto a bus at 5:15am, or maybe be lucky enough to get in a car and commute for an hour just to get to the office. These rich fucks who get up at 4:30 to do yoga and slam down green drink or whatever the fuck don't ever cook or clean or anything. They can always walk to work because they can afford to live wherever they please. They've not gotta deal with their own kids, or fuck all else.

      Being rich means you literally have more time and fuck I can't stand it.

        Yeah that's true actually. John McAfee is the only honest rich guy (even though he still gets the central park treatment ayy)

        It's really hard not to like that guy. Made an antivirus, sold it, fucked off to do drugs and/or crime for the rest of his life while being 100% open/honest about that.

        he's probably done some horrifically fucked up shit, but idk, havent seen any specific evidence for it.

            his neighbor was murdered and they wanted to question mcafee since he was his neighbor, but because mcafee is a paranoid-as-fuck freakshow he fled

            maybe he did kill that guy or maybe he was indirectly involved, but i find it just as likely that he had nothing to do with it and just doesn't want to talk to the cops. either way afaik there's no evidence he killed him unless just living nearby is evidence enough to make an accusation like that

      "I also jack off a lot. So much masturbation, you wouldn't even believe it. And I make money while doing it. I'm just constantly jerking my wang, because I have nothing better to do."

      Yeah. Like kings and feudal lords were all "basically God has sent me to rule over you miserable worms" then slept with like 10 different maidens, got gangrene and died. This is like "oh my routine has endowed me with the spiritual and physical fortitude to make me worthy to receive my earthly gifts from the great God of hustle" then they listen to the goop podcast and silently deal with their vagina infection.
