Sam Altman had a quote today regarding Elon Musk saying how he didn’t think he was a very happy person and that he’s lived his whole life from a position of insecurity. Was timely as I’d just read your post.
Incidentally, Altman signed The Giving Pledge to give away most of his wealth.
This gave me such glee to fantasize about throwing billionaires into “wealth detox” — WE NEED TO MAKE THIS A THING, WHY IS THIS NOT A THING. Everything you said about uber wealth being an illness absolutely tracks and I wish it would be outlined appropriately in the DSM-5.
You think? Maybe as like a weird niche thing to re-experience to create a sense of desensitization, like their version of a float tank from their uber wealth reality
And I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that drive, on the contrary. I love Sky’s point about sessions on empathy and volunteering being integral to the rehab.

Vision board. Actually I’m sure they would love to go.

All men yearn to bleed out in a European battlefield. As for the women…. Well, they’re few and far between
Little boys with such poor behavior are crying out for boundaries on a deep level
Yes, from an evolved psychological standpoint I agree. This is also why so many men on Wall Street pay fortunes to mistress doms to “punish” them.

OMG THIS WAS GOOOOOODDDD
