What is there to learn from Chamath's career?

Serious question. He lost a lot of money I read his net worth would be around $43 bn if he kept all of his Meta shares vs the $1 bn he has today (not chump change, I know). His SPAC pump and dump also tarnished his brand. But now he has access to exclusive opportunities and connections thru the Trump admin and he is regularly rubbing shoulders with the likes of Jensen and Tim Cook. Is the career and life advice just to stay in the arena, try new things, be as famous as possible, and be shameless?
