    Bill Gates is a higher class of billionaire. He funnels money through philanthropy and charities. Lonnie just lights it on fire. They are not the same. What I mean is that Billy Boy is doing exactly what you said because he’s much smarter than Lonnie.

      Yep. Gates came from Rich. Legit rich. Hence his education and upbringing and investor support early on. But he coupled it with, well, talent and appetite hence <gesticulates at the MS evolution and hellscape> eh overall… I prefer him to musk I guess?

      It’s a hard ask because SpaceX. Otherwise… fuck that guy.
