But also, in the same breath, no one loves the troops more than me. I'm a uuuuuuge fan of people fighting and dying for my investments. I've tripled my worth in almost 2 years. 32k trades and one small crypto scheme. Let's talk about the beautiful island my son in law and beautiful daughter bought instead.

I had a friend who was a trust fund billionaire. Didn't know he came from money till we became friends. Once I knew his dad was paying his mortgage his behaviour became a lot less palatable.

Especially his "i'm a good investor" bullshit when all he did was go all in on the rigged oil and gas industry.

Billionaires raise the worst kind of human beings.

Laywer billionares moreso.

(TBF these guys were multimillionaires for generations and probably had a collective net worth below 1B but IMO its irrelevant)
