So flake mentioned something about starting a dating site yesterday in chat and than u4e acted like a douche and it reminded of this socially awkward Canadian who is making bank while doing absolutely nothing.

Getting paid while everyone else is trying to get laid.
That could be us.
"This person is unknown and undistinguished. He hasn't gone to MIT, Stanford, or any other four-year college for that matter..."
yeah but where's the prestige in that?
Did you miss the $10 mil a year part?
Plus, when you value it at a ~4x EV/REV multiple1 and consider the fact that the article says he has margins of ~50%, you have a guy that owns all of the equity on an $80M asset that he expended a negligible amount of energy to create. FUCK your prestige.
1 Source = random Canaccord report I found that initiates on LNKD + me removing some of the shitty companies like AOL for a VERY official back-of-envelope style calc.
-NR
So, he likely had more fun in college, got laid more AND NR's points still hold true.
What's the problem?
Working 1 hour a day and cashing in 10 million a year is more than enough prestige for me personally.
NR you're my hero.
More like socially awesome.
I get the feeling he's probably something of a socially awkward guy, thus creating an internet dating site...
but now he's a baller :-p
lol No matter how much money this guy has, he will NEVER be prestigious! Never. I mean, come on - he didn't go to HBS, didn't work at GS or MS or M/B/B. Even if he had $10B, he would always be underendowed in the prestige department. I don't even know why our system allows unpedigreed people to become rich. We have so many hardworking H/Y/P 3.9 GPA kids who work their asses off only to end up working in some dead-end exit op that pays 300-500k. And suddenly, out of nowhere, comes this social retard, who didn't even go to an ivy, wasn't a president of a college club, has never volunteered building homes in Africa or at least at a soup kitchen, has no extracurriculars and therefore no personality, and starts pulling in some serious coin. Our society is getting more fucked up with each day.
I hope you're being sarcastic
never volunteered building homes in Africia? seriously? you know this how?
i haven't met many bankers / traders who have built homes in Africia. Central / South America, yes, Africia, no.
Hahaha, NRG, Li-Ka Shing can own you in any day at any time
Your right! He wasn't president of a college club?! How dare he use the free market to funnel the unearned dollars of people who enjoy using his service into his undeserving pockets!
lmao
