caught up with a friend who’s “getting as far away from tech as possible” and looking at acquiring a torch business, gas station, or metal roofing company. “…I’m terrified of ai” First real account of someone I know actioning on ai like that.

I have several SV friends who peaced out to go farm/ranch/spend time with their families. It makes me uncomfortable.

How much did they make? I mean... Depending on how much they made, I know a lot of people that would get away from the world Alaska especially

They haven’t said. But I assume they continue to work for the challenge and drive or to keep up with the Jone’s. They could take their stock options and retire comfortably but maybe not keep their current lifestyle. I’m making assumptions though.

Everyone has their own reasons... Sometimes it's completely irrelevant... Family especially

I have one friend who is by all measurable objectives, completely fine, but they are trying to have kids and he’s got it stuck in his mind that his future theoretical children must start going to private school starting when they’re 3-25 and has this crazy budget in his head for how much this may cost. He will never be able to stop working if he’s seriously going to send them to 50k a year preschool. To each their own I guess.
