    Dude keeps trying to cash in on the next big thing but always fails. He’s never had an original idea and just lucked out with facebook, which was preceded by myspace anyway.

    This is what all capitalism is. The capitalists copy, take credit, gradually degrade the project while paying capitalist cronies more and more inflated prices for supplies, contracted labor, line go up for a few quarters, capitalist decides to cash out, too bad for the public, astute business management.

    Aka flood the market with extraneous bs rather than plan the economy around legitimate public need and benefit, while any surplus can be traded and donated to global communities for global need.

    One you achieve a certain level of wealth, you can fail upwards forever, as long as you don't bet it all. A few million invested can generate a decent yearly wage for life. A few billion can generate tens of millions a year, even at the worst rates.

    When you're at the Epstein classes level of wealth, you can lose billions without consequence.
