      People like to pretend that karma is somehow real. It’s not. In real life, the bad guys win and live long and happy lives.

        Karma is horseshit, yes. But I do feel a little nicer when I find out one of the mega wealthy is perpetually unhappy. It’s proof that all the money in the world can’t save people from themselves.

        this guy seems to care about his image and status so airing the dirty laundry is poison to him

          But not to his account.

          If he’s even remotely smart, he put away quite a bit of money, or has some investment vehicle that keeps generating money for him.

          He may be irrelevant in 5 years, but also wealthy enough to not care.

        If I could do something to piss people off and make life changing money I’d probably do it

          Want to know why karma is real? Karma isnt some mystical force that keeps the world in balance. If you live your life pissing people off, one day you will piss someone off who doesn’t take kindly to being pissed off. The more you do it, the more likely it is to happen to you.
