Because the accumulation of money and power is absurd. For the humorless, posts under this tag are exaggerated versions of real events people do to maximize shareholder value. Reading the footnotes is like having the joke explained to you. Don't do it if you want to keep laughing and enjoy the moment of getting token hacked.

I am a humble banker from China who only has a few billion dollars of asset under management

My job to to give credit card to those who ask

Where can?! Injustice! You say.

You ask me why woman get more credit card money.

Serial entrepreneur. Always maximizing shareholder value.

My sales team was complaining about indecisive clients.

They blamed the pitch. The product. The market.

I dont think they understand.

The problem wasn't what we were saying. It was who was listening.

So I hired an asset, not a salesperson.

Her name is Anya. She has zero sales experience.

Her only requirement? Look gorgeous and classy.

Then, her job is to join our most important Zoom calls...

And do absolutely nothing (she plays Honkai Star Rail while pretending to take notes).

Serial entrepreneur. Always maximizing shareholder value.

I am a humble owner of a $100m PE business.

My firm is the dream destination for every ambitious MBA.

My recruits arrive from investment banks, broken and sleep-deprived.

Thinking they've finally "made it." In reality, they've just entered a more sophisticated cage.

Their 90-hour work weeks aren't a temporary sacrifice.

It's a filtering mechanism for obedience.

I don't need to manage them. Their own desperate ambition does it for me.

They're not building a career. They're building my LPs' returns on the wreckage of their 20s.

Serial entrepreneur. Always maximizing shareholder value.

19 yo female entrepreneur came to me for advice.

She had a digital asset. An OF page, but not enough traffic.

I beta-tested her product. I found no issues.

It was her marketing.

She wanted to buy ads, build a brand, be "aspirational" and be "adventurous".

I told her that was a losing strategy.

My advice was simple.

Stop trying to be liked. Start trying to be misunderstood.

I met a humble boomer with $100M net worth.

He is retarded. Let me explain.

They say you can't take it with you. They're wrong. You just need the right strategy.

I manage the portfolio for a man whose children think he lost his mind.

They see him as a frail patriarch, fading into dementia.

They hold meetings behind his back, whispering about him as a liability.

I dont think they understand.

This boomer is a predator playing the long game.
