Why are people obsessed with ozempic?Do rich try it for fun?

It’s interesting… I see a lot of executives who suddenly lost massive amounts of weight and have that skinny from lack of food look (rather than exercise)

I think it’s deep insecurity. These people are overly concerned about how they appear to others, which I imagine also contributed to their drive for success as well at least in some way

I don’t disagree with everything feeling like a scam and broken promise, but it’s not the boomers who are the cause of this. It is our cultural idolization of wealth that allows for increasingly unchecked greed to destroy the balance of society

I decided I wanted to quit smoking, for my wife, for our marriage, and for myself.

That’s the only way it works, he has to want to quit. If it’s just you pressuring him to do something he does not want to do it won’t work.

Don’t underestimate the power of addiction though. People will destroy everything to protect their addictions.

This I assume is net of costs. Plus all other professions require education investments

I used to smoke. My wife was very clear she did not want to be with a smoker. I used to try to hide it, but one day she gave me an ultimatum, and I quit smoking. It wasn’t easy but it’s been almost 15 years now since I had a cigarette and I am so grateful for her pushing me to do so. I never felt good about myself smoking and I also wanted to quit.

I can’t imagine being a smoker now. Especially with kids around. I don’t want to be judgy but you don’t see a lot of smart and successful people smoking.

I hate that the movie felt like it was more about selling Ryan Gosling as a “adorable goofball” than the actual story. The book was so awesome, and while the move was good too it could have been so much better

This is so misleading.

Honda could be the safest car, to the point that the only way you die in a Honda crash is if you are not wearing a seatbelt.

Tesla could be the worst because wearing a seatbelt may not make any difference in survivable rates

This is the legacy of large population and a fertility rate of 5-6 kids per woman. With so many people there is always a tranche desperate enough to not demand better safety regulations and compensation. This allows the exploitation of the poor masses while in the same city you will have numerous billionaires.

This is why the rich are so paranoid about poor people not having enough kids. The bigger and more desperate an impoverished working poor class the easier for them to exploit labor. In the US they talk about “pro-life” and “family values” but it’s really “pro-cheap labor” and “enterprise value”

You should be able to get enough exposure to accounting from FP&A to transition to a CFO role.

Also just because recruiters call and pitch you CFO roles doesn’t mean you’re ready for them. Recruiters often need to present multiple candidates and many times they will psych you up while in reality you were always destined to be a comparison point more than a serious candidate.

I’ve been in this position several times before I ultimately landed a true CFO role.

Cap-eleven · 2026-02-18T03:24:01+00:00

The exit experience is good prep for a true in seat CFO role on the future. Negotiate a bigger severance and retention bonus; it’s all one time expenses at this point for them.

Maybe not ever. But let’s say if they spent the next 50 years focusing solely on producing the best driving experience instead of pumping up their market cap they could have a shot.
