And I have seen absolutely no evidence of a high IQ. You're correct that I can't comprehend his lack of self-awareness, though.
His life is not luck; no one can have that much fucking luck.
No one can have enough luck to win the lottery for a billion dollars. But it happens.

The odds of winning a lottery are not based on the size of the jackpot.

Fair enough. Nobody can have enough luck to win a "mega ball" lottery, but it happens.

What has he won 10 times? What has he ever won against significant odds? What has the man ever accomplished that couldn't be explained by his background and surroundings?

No, you can make yourself a lot ''luckier'' if you can afford to buy several million different tickets though.

You overestimate the value of money; probably from not having a lot. I agree his money was an important ingredient to his kind of Meta but he took it from there. Hell, at one point he was worth NEGATIVE $300 million.

There’s definite value in everyone getting on the same page and pulling in the same direction during a crisis. No problem with that.

But this talk of “life will never be the same” has gotta go. That’s crazy talk. The paving stones for tyranny being laid before our eyes.
Well, if by "life" they mean "every aspect of life", I'd disagree along with you. However, I think issues like work-life balance could become more of an issue in the future in various countries, especially for families with young children. Can also lead to less naivety about globalization, that the nation state retains an important purpose (that last point is something I'm hoping might build within the EU countries). Oh, and for those who have been too naive about China, it could also be a wake up call about how incompetent they really are when it comes to global relations.

There are probably loads of ways this thing can and will change life. Not all of it major, not all of it bad, good, etc. But one of the planet's few global events that lasted for several months? Sure.

5 years from now, people will be embarrassed by our face-mask reaction to this. I took pictures in the grocery store today for a Martin’s Minutes (which I know Globalists don’t read).

If you gave me billions of dollars and charisma and a personality that was conducive to running a major company or country, I could be a billionaire president. Its not that hard to do. Hell, Hillary and Bernie both managed to win too.

I'm not trying to brag, but I was a Zimbabwe trillionaire at one point.
