We don't tell people enough that we appreciate them, that they are awesome, and that they have a real positive impact on our lives (at one point, or even years later).
We should do this more often.
We should just, daily, randomly select someone from our contacts and tell them they are awesome.

Money is a human construct.
It’s not a part of nature, and doesn’t actually exist outside of our own minds.
We made it up.

The original NYT story only mentioned transactions between 2015 and 2016, but this makes it clear Thiel's VC was investing with Epstein's money until April 2019.
This also means Thiel's VC fund was under scrutiny in the SDNY Epstein investigation, just to be clear.
