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 eats McDonalds for lunch every day! So relatable'
Fucking end me. Then WHY DO YOU NEED 100 BILLION YOU GHOUL, YOU CAN DO THAT AND LIVE WELL ON LIKE 80K A YEAR HE LIVES IN FUCKING NEBRASKA
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.
“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”
The Wolf of Wall Street did this but folks just thought it was cool
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.
“Unemployed surfer wakes up at 5:30 every(most) mornings, smokes a lot of green, and studies theory” would be my headline post COVID so this chick ain’t special
When I was a kid I heard about the crookedest street in the world and I thought it was so cool. I was really excited to see it, then I went there and I realized that they just made it crooked on purpose and I was so disappointed. It wasn't a cool street with an interesting history, it was just some self-indulgent landscaping project. A little part of me died that day.
Anyways fuck this lady.
Oh shit we doing storytime?
When I was a kid my stupid bumfuck town decided to make a 9/11 tribute a year after to the one guy that died there who had a house in my town. Not even sure if he lived there in retrospect.
Anyways, the tribute was a "monument" they built was in the middle grassy bit of a 2-road Y-lane intersection, and consisted of a big flower garden with few benches & a plaque, with a 50ft(15m) flag pole in the middle with an ungainly large flag. There was no sidewalk or crossing access to it whatsoever. It also had three stadium-grade fuckyou spotlights to permanently illuminate the flag.
They even got George Bush himself to stop by while passing through & bless the dumb little thing. Like 6 months after that there was a drought & the stupidly large flag caught fire from the hundred thousand candela spotlights & the whole 9/11 monument burned down.
That was my first memory of irony.
Beautiful, I can just imagine everyone acting really upset after it burnt down because nobody wanted to admit that they didn't give a shit.
Lol, it got a mention in the paper & they rebuilt it with a smaller flag & much more tasteful solar lamps. Nobody ever thought of it before, or since.
Last I saw the flowers were too much of a bother apparently.
Even if people like this were telling the truth, what's the point of being rich if you're just going to use it to work more?
For real! "Le epic GentleSir Elon Musc wokrs 70 hours a week!"
Oh, really? I guess he won't mind if we ""borrow"" some of his spending cash then, huh?
As a woman, I feel that I need to put this out there: #notallwomen
She says she does economic development in Papua New Guinea so I assume that's code for laundering money for terrorists.
Sure, she might be funding paramilitary death squads to murder indigenous people but shes making sure said death squads are WOMEN! #GIRLBOSS 💅 💅💅

This is fucking pathetic. These striver dickheads usually make up some shit about working 7422 hours a week, but this is all just bullshit.
5:30 - jerks off for 3.5 hours
9:00 - starts work at a normal time
9:00-10:30 - meetings (aka not work)
10:30-noon - "meets with tech companies" which is apparently different from "meetings" but still sounds like "not actual work"
noon-1:30 - takes an hour and a half lunch. Really showing the grind so far!
1:30-indeterminate - takes a conference call with her "working group" which again sounds like another fucking meeting which again is not actual work
Unclear time frame anymore - commutes from SF to Palo Alto, listens to goop, still not working.
Things get very vague from here - goes to work on her "certificate of innovation and entrepreneurship" at Stanford which makes sense she has the energy to do that seeing as she's yet to do any actual work that I've seen in this breakdown
It could be 2:00 or 6:00, nobody knows - banker that works for terrorist and cartel collaborators HSBC does🚨ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT🚨in poor countries, alarm bells are clanging.
7:00-bedtime: yoga and other dumb shit I don't care about.
My easiest days at work are harder than this, fuck off.
"On the evenings that we stay in Palo Alto, we walk down the tree-lined University Avenue, reflecting upon our key wins and challenges and preparing for the adventures of the next day," she said
Holy shit. She sounds like a robot. One of the photo captions said her favorite podcasts includes Goop. That’s the Gwyneth Paltro media company that tells women it’s cool and good to steam their vaginas.
At least she uses the train! But she listens to the Goop podcast on the train so, yeah.
Goop: We’re going to get a bunch of women to do weird stuff to their vaginas.
I used to get spammed with those articles all the time, so I would aggregate them and post them to r/cth . But there were so many of them that it quickly got ridiculous. MSNBC, Business Insider, CNBC, etc can all burn in a fucking trash fire.
