Watching Peter Thiel on JRE: seems like he's just so rich and has so much time on his hands that he spends most of it reading weird shit about pyramids and human ancestors taking magic mushrooms.
Actually makes you wonder about the propensity for billionaires to go down a Bitcoin rabbit hole, or be plebs on nostr. I mean, what else are they doing? Can't spend 100% of your time preparing for board meetings or going to charity balls - and if you were that rich, why would you?
not a billionaire, but go down my fair share of rabbit holes, not gonna lie!
I'm guessing you don't work a full time job and have more freedom over your time? Then basically you're in the same position as a billionaire. I mean, what else are they doing? Okay you can buy loads of fast cars or a yacht, but driving the car must get a bit tiresome ... and then when you're on your yacht then you're essentially just a time rich pleb with a view.
guilty as charged -- time-rich pleb, and the more everything around me is shown to be fraud, the more curious I am about finding out what’s true.
Maybe he just talked a lot about that stuff at uni. Billionaires need to have their capital somewhere that either increases in purchasing power or earns a yield. If they really did nothing their money would melt away.
