This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I mean, yeah he had a lot of advantage, but he did have to do something right to become the richest man. But making some good gambles doesn't make you a good person nor does it mean you're great at everything.
Maybe he was good at finding companies at the right time to invest, but that means jack about any economic or political acumen. Same reason why we don't want businessmen in politics, being good at one thing does not mean you're good at everything.
He's a modern day Wilbur Ross, with some edits on background and rich-parent launchpad thrown in.
