    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.

      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.
