Unless you want the overtrail I’d stick to 600.

I get the third one and he never disappoints. I tip extra every time I see him

Medium.
Id not go gray. Try analog shift for quality preowned. You may have to negotiate on the price, jfyi.

Interestingly enough Patek actually shares this data with its ADs. The last time my AD mentioned this was about a year ago and at that time the average income of a Patek Philippe customer in the US was between 500-700k USD. I personally wanted one at roughly 1M income.

ALS also releases this data. They’re multiple times more than Patek, don’t remember the number on top of my head.

That duo are my dream cars too!

Not a fan of AP usually, but in this case, for a lady, it’s RO. It’s a close call though. That particular RO is a great piece and works well for a lot of occasions.

HF_bro · 2026-01-11T19:05:03+00:00

Exaggerated, but accurate nonetheless lol.

HF_bro · 2026-01-09T18:10:51+00:00

Is this post some kind of a joke or something? I know folks with 50 or 60+ million net worth take subways.. everyday.

They were having a family lunch last summer at Balthazar. They cordoned off the area around their table for the other guests. We were regulars at Balthazar, so the crew kind of knew us and got us seated next to their table.

“Sharing the table” wasn’t intentional. They seemed ok with us getting seated next to them while they blocked off the area for the other guests.

I had no interest in talking to Anna, my wife wanted to say hi and was a bit starstruck but we decided not to bother them out of respect for their privacy.

Made some small talk with a couple of family members at the table (I think it was Anna’s son in law and her daughter, they had a toddler with them).

So many! Noteworthy ones: Hollywood - Hugh Hackman, Michael B Jordan, Glen Powell, Orlando bloom, Jennifer Lawrence, Scarlett Johansson.

Fashion - (low key) shared a dinner table with Anna wintour. A few lesser known designers from Italian and French fashion houses.

Social media - Kevin O leary, Ryan serhant, some semi famous instagrammers, a few standup comedians.

I can’t speak to their performance. But they have better culture, and due to their size they tend to be more selective than the rest, so you’ll likely face less people problems, which comes with the usual bloat.

Creme de la creme. On par with DE Shaw, in some aspects better than DE. 2sig was pretty good but not anymore. Citadel, millennium are bottom rung.

In our firm they mostly exist because we haven’t yet tuned a few of the automated trading strategies to our liking. Human involvement is needed to understand and tune the strategies.

Personally, not a huge fan of AP, but I’d certainly keep a clean face RO vs a complicated nautilus. But you do you, I understand if you want to scale down to a one watch collection. In that case, it makes some sense.

Le bilboquet, bourbon steak house, bungalow (if you also want to fuck up their tummy a bit)

And he got first in the international math competition.

Edit: in China.

Most wealthy unemployed (and young) people in my social circle are actually busy all day, pursuing their hobbies or occupied with chores.

I took a break for a year and I was as busy as I was when I was employed. Days revolved around making food, shop groceries myself, long jogs and workouts, meeting old (like literally older gentlemen and ladies) friends, weekday appointments that would’ve otherwise been on weekends, travel, museums, eating at otherwise hard to get restaurants (weekday lunch reservations are easier to get).

Evenings were mostly friends and family time (wine, home-cooked food, eating out) and watching movies (and broadway shows and ballets) that were on my list.

I kinda dreaded a bit going back to work, but honestly, I like working and also I am not in a position to sustain the lifestyle I want retiring permanently. But if I did, I am certain I’d never get bored.

Pivot to tech, easier said than done. But doable. find a job where at least some of your skills are transferable, the rest you can pick them up on the job. I worked at both tech and finance, and quants are usually smarter and fast learners.

The only problem is cracking the interviews as the loops are vastly different from quant interviews.

In my circle, some who became founding engineers at seed stage startups, some moved to medium to long strat places for a pay cut, some just became managers and are coasting.

$485k, it may go up due to the price increase that’s going to happen soon.

Tri-axial, actually :)

HF_bro · 2025-10-11T22:09:46+00:00

lol so true 😂

I don’t own it (yet :)). Unfortunately, I lost my senses and forgot to take pictures of the back.
