Is making rich people richer that meaningful though? I’m not being trite. My career has been in finance. Sell side. I loved it. Mostly. It engaged me and was challenging and I worked with smart people. So it was fulfilling to me. But. Was it that meaningful? Not sure.

Ok. But hedge funds. They exist to manage wealthy peoples money. Make rich people richer. That’s it. It’s not really up there with meaningful work like scientist or healthcare or education that benefits the masses. This is catering to the elite and skimming off the top. Which is totally fine. And as I said, I spent 30 years at BBs which was fulfilling. BUT I think it’s a stretch to say it’s meaningful work.

Do you think Facebooks power and reach has peaked?
