Really?
I think he's implying that he works at Akuna capital?
Oh ok wooosh went over my head haha
You can afford to pay for therapy, so you should go to therapy.
Guys it's a joke I'm not actually depressed
Are you even a quant?
No. The joke is that the phrase is "Hakuna Matata", not "Akuna Matata". Akuna Capital is a quant trading firm.
OMG. How are people taking this so seriously when it's clearly a joke.
