As a 15 year asset trader, there's a certain threshold, around $2m, where its difficult not to make more money, and the game becomes increasingly easy and pointless. Also, the more money you have, the more you have to guard yourself with other people.

[@MediumDSpeaks]

[@AndrewScott1337]

Truly, once the amount of money hits a critical mass you can earn a lawyer's salary by using incredibly safe and low-risk investments that would at best yield a little supplemental grocery money each month for average working-class people.

[@raymondhyatt3186]

David is a really interesting guy. When he was young his art was really pure and mesmerizing. He had this show with his cousin and they hitchhiked all across the country. One episode they hopped trains and hitchhiked from San Diego to Alaska. They would meet different characters and have really cool adventures. I also enjoyed the episodes with his parents in them and how their family interacted was really sweet and pure. Watching those episodes, admiring his art and keeping up with those adventures inspired me a lot. Now listening to this clip and watching the other podcast he did with Rogan makes me understand that this guy has had some of the most epic scary adventures most humans can only dream of having. He does come off like a pompous ass in this but the dude has experienced and seen shit even Rogan can’t even comprehend. Research a bit about what he has done and places his been it will blow your mind🤯 .

[@mattvanemden7573]

Experience is nothing if you do not learn. Seems like he hasnt learnt much. He literally said he would change the planet with 1 billion dollars and his decisions in doing so would make no sense on paper. This is a very naiive, egotistical, ignorant, individual... if he truly believes the bollocks he said in this video.

People commenting on the attitude of David, can’t help but feel confused. None of us could possibly understand what it feels like to live a life like his, I feel like everyone in this comment section struggles to try and put themselves in his shoes… I cannot see how he is full of himself at all… he’s describing his life and just being himself, money probably is a game to him as he’s extremely rich, why does this anger some people? He probably had slept with many models, why does this anger people? Sounds like jealousy, and what… if he just didn’t speak of these things that makes him humble? Why are people saying this was a hard watch??? People just can’t handle someone being real with it anymore..

I'm the opposite. I've been taking life too seriously and need to take it like a video game.

[@mr.doctorcaptain1124]

Honestly, yeah. The idea of playing something like a video game is figuring out the meta, and abusing it. You know the idiots who got into nft’s early and made bank? They’re not idiots. They just play it like a game. Anyone can be successful, if it’s the only thing you focus on. It’s like being in shape, or good at a video game. If that’s the only thing you focus on, you’ll succeed. But do you really want that? I’m much happier focusing on my wife and daughter. I enjoy working my 9-5 and I don’t want to have to dedicate 100 hours a week of my life, potentially for the next 30 years, just trying to make money. To me that’s foolish. But, if that’s what you want, that’s what you can do.

[@GabrielThuma]

@@thephilosopher7173 he says he got nothing from it, besides a decade of sleeping with 10s

[@Alverin]

Just to be clear, it's entirely possible David Cho "worked hard" and "Got Lucky" at the same time. And the "Got Lucky" part probably pulled a lot more of that 100 million he made than "Working Hard" and that 100 million pulled way more 10's than his funny jokes. That's why so many rich and successful people are like this guy, trying so hard to find something "real" because they realize they were just tools for more powerful people and they feel guilty that they won the rich man lottery. They also feel like they wasted their life being that tool because they're not happy with the result, despite being rich and having tons of sex. People want so much to find value in themselves because they think that makes them happy, when the truth is that finding value in others is usually what makes you happy, that's why we decide to have kids and raise them to be better than us.

[@mattpanz609]

His unintentional point: being wealthy to begin with definitely helps you make more money and helps you stop caring about money

[@mewgiah8057]

It's because everything gets boring once you achieve it. People who make millions or Billions stop feeling anything for it. And when you become financially free permanently then you lose a major aspect of life - which is working to survive. This is why so many retired people become depressed or aimless. The issue though is they have money to fall back on. They won't go homeless if they don't work. So people who say money doesn't mean anything are able to do so because they don't need to worry about obtaining it. If Choe was bankrupt and suddenly couldn't afford food - then suddenly money would absolutely be important again. I think what Choe really means is the pursuit of money itself isn't fulfilling. Or it won't satisfy you when you reach it. The fact that so many rich people tell you this probably means it's true. But that still doesn't change the fact we need money to live. And having wealth frees you up to pursue passions. So to the vast majority of the population who are working to survive, these kind of messages ring hollow. But I do understand what Choe really means. He's just saying that becoming wealthy and famous isn't as rewarding as society makes it out to be. But him reaching wealth has now freed him up to pursue things that are actually fulfilling (spirituality and traveling).

The artist doesn't label themselves as such. To them, art represents dedicated effort and a mode of self-expression; it's an integral facet of life.
