Date: July 22nd, 2025 2:28 PM Author: Naked stag film alpha I strongly feel that the best way to build a meaningful life is to work hard and provide for your wife and family. Be the man that others depend on. I guess in a way some of us depend on RSF to provide us with tales of his indulgence, but this peek behind the curtain so to speak is so fleeting and insubstantial. He could really touch lives with his wealth and social prominence. I still hope to meet him and hang out with him one day. Maybe once I've lost 200 pounds he'll welcome me to St-Tropez with open arms! |
|
Date: July 22nd, 2025 4:36 PM Author: white swashbuckling mental disorder volcanic crater Subject: I We've peeked behind the curtain enough times to know he's a middle aged alcoholic without the comforts of family or purpose. His life may be gilded but it also reeks of the F Scott Fitzgerald characters in the interwar years drinking themselves to an early death. Maybe he's fortunate to have a few genes to help him defy his fate a few years but it will catch up soon enough and one suspects it's already starting to as his boasts of St. Tropez and easy conquests of nubile tanned girls rings more hollow than true, at a minimum, not entirely honest.
Better to have become a fat middle aged man whiling away his days at country clubs and a sinecure family office job, with a fading blond wife and a few spoiled kids. At least there's contentment and company, for blood is always thicker than water. The routines of a comfortable life and watching your kids grow up is something I'd never trade for whatever it is that RSF calls life, even if he has many more millions.

And if you're CSLG then you're rich too and can do your own thing so why would you worry about what RSF is doing? This is one of the weirdest thing about humanity - watching people with far more money than me (I'm only worth a few million, you guys all have 10s of millions, but outright billionaires do this petty shit too) argue about who is lame or living the right or wrong lifestyle or whatever.
I at least get why the destitute posters are MAF at rich posters, but rich posters displeased with the lifestyles of other posters makes zero sense. |

I have plenty of respect for inherited wealth people who exponentially increase the family fortune e.g. Rupert Murdoch.
