Your latest article’s point? Seek more when you reach the mid-life crises in pursuit of greater financial riches? True, if you agree that trading-in your soul, losing your morality, and becoming ethically bankrupt for billions is a measure of success.
I’m 53, have two children, my loving wife, and work tirelessly as a healthcare provider during the pandemic. In 20+ years I have yet to hear a single dying patient wish they had made more money or conquered new financial thresholds. They all wish they had more time. Time with their kids, time with their spouses, time with friends and family.
I go home at night and sleep well because I know I make a difference on a personal level without bearing personal profit in mind. I measure success by how many lives I’ve saved, how many people get to go home and hug their loved ones, or how much more time we give back to people to make their own positive difference for the people around them.
Zuckerberg is clearly on the spectrum, so his journey to create a world of his own makes perfect sense. Elon claims to be on the spectrum, but I think he is much too funny and interesting for that claim to be true. In ten years, the entire Internet system will be augmented with a completely decentralized and far superior structure ...a place where Google has to rebuild from the ground up and where their value may be limited to research on the "old" Internet. No more .com, .net, .org, ,xyz. The HNS system creates an individual root for each name, eliminating the need for the what will soon to be thought of as a silly ICANN controlled extension to the right of the dot. A name like Nashville/ can be used as it's own domain name without an extension, but can also move itself to the right of the dot and create unlimited subdomains to the left of the dot. No need for Google to tell you where to find the best food in Nashville... go to restaurants.nashville, thaifood.nashville, fastfood.nashville, italian.nashville, in-n-out.nashville (one could only hope for that!), etc.. A complete internet can be built for every word in every language, emoji, or other recognized symbol. I guess MY midlife crisis has me fascinated with #HNS.
ouch - Marc, this is the first time I sense a taste of cynicism from you. Maybe it is that you yourself are also having a midlife about TheLadders - that it never made it to 1BN valuation. I don't disagree with your keen insights regarding these happenstance enterprises - the bumbling Robber Barons of the Information Revolution, but I also believe there are new and profound paths that The Ladders could move in where no job board has gone before, things I myself have looked for (and still look for) in a board for the last 30 years, and I'm sure others would get it. The Ladders has the potential to change the landscape but like all the rest, just doesn't see it. So hire me for a consultation, from a seasoned career professional. You won't regret it.
Back in the day (no refrigeration) the larder and your clothes rotted every few days and humans were challenged to find the next woolly mammoth. When mammoths were gone, money was invented so one had to choose which of several discrete alternatives it should be applied to - fairly challenging.
Zuckerburg can now buy anything (except Lanai, HI), without making a dent in his cash reserve, so price and value (and life?) have become meaningless.
Tired of all the animosity, of being the butt of jokes. How about he uses a few of those billions creating or funding a few charities? Perhaps for wounded Vets ( you know, the ones who defended the country where he was able to make those trillions he's so proud of) or research for a disease that affects/kills the kids who will continue to use the products that will allow him to make more. Maybe that would allow him to not only actually feel good about himself but certale some of the animosity that hurts his little feelings and makes him feel bad. Something more than his token membership discounts to people with disabilities or allowing people to use foodstamps to buy food on Amazon, both of which still attribute to his trillions. People with a lot less money than him have done a lot more. He's a greedy pathetic excuse of a human being. If his "midlife crisis" does nothing more than drive him to look for a challenge to create something to make more money for himself, I don't feel one bit sorry for him. All those trillions he's so proud of won't buy his way out of the final judgment he deserves and I for one hope it's severe.
I really don't know why I had to read this. Fine: Mr. Zuckerberg paid Mr. Cenedella a few bucks for a promotional article. What made Facebook successful is an abundance of retards with no appreciation for their own privacy. As far as I am concerned, I always avoided and will keep avoiding any service that has anything to do with Mr. Zuckerberg. And I will stay away from any individual or groups of such who sound too enthusiastic about Facebooks, metaverses, crapoverses, PokemonGo, and similar. Thanks again for emailing a useless paid ad to me.

How about you Marc? Do you sleep well at night?

There is nothing new under the Sun…

I can't relate, nor do I care to.

How do you know he doesn't?
Just remember to leave someone vigilant on the outside to keep an eye on the power plug (paraphrasing Neil Stephenson from Snow Crash).

Grose people with meaningless lives.
These people are making our world burn and destroying nature.
Karma will deal with them.
