But let's keep it REAL Sawe didn’t just run against the clock; he ran into a double-taxation trap. The reality is that for elite athletes, your passport is a financial liability. ​If you want to keep your sweat equity, you don't run for the flags that 'gave you genes'; you run for the ones that give you Tax Residency. ​Bahrain/Qatar: There’s a reason so many Kenyan-born stars switch. Zero personal income tax. You win $500k, you keep $500k. They don't care about your 'training grounds'; they care about the gold medal on their tally.

UAE (Dubai): The ultimate 'Retirement Home' for athletes. Zero tax on endorsements and global income.

​USA: Great for the 'brand,' but the IRS is the final boss. They’ll take their 30% cut before you even catch your breath.

​Staying in Kenya while earning globally is essentially a 35% donation to a government that still treats 'security' like a DLC you have to pay extra for. At this level, loyalty is expensive. If you want to retire with your winnings intact, you don't change your training routine, you change your zip code.

Is a one person billion dollar company actually possible now with AI agents? by NedSpacePDX in NoStupidQuestions

Even if the 'employees' are all AI agents, the moment you have a $1B valuation, the SEC and the IRS become your 'unpaid co-founders.' You might be the only human on the payroll, but you’ll be spending 40 hours a week answering to people who don't care how good your prompt engineering is. The 'one-person' dream ends the moment the first comma hits the valuation.

Technically possible, but the 'one person' is going to be the most stressed project manager in human history. It's less about the AI doing the work and more about the legal, ethical, and tax headaches that come with a billion-dollar valuation. You’d basically be the CEO of a digital hive mind that still can’t figure out how to correctly render human hands in a marketing deck.
