is the author writing this article from the future? Peter Thiel is 57 years old (2025).

‘Peter Thiel famously bought his Paypal shares (which were valued at a few cents when he founded the company) into his Roth IRA account. When he turned 65, he was able to access the billions that the Paypal equity was worth with 0 tax on it.’

Wow for some reason I thought he was 65 already, thanks for the correction
One can access their Roth IRA penalty free starting at 59.5, no need to wait to 65
I would bet it’s LLM generated like most content these days
The entirety of my blog was written pre-chatgpt and pre-scheduled. You can even check the images I use for all blog posts which were the first generation of ai images from 2021 which are quite bad looking now. LLMs were too awful to use nor would I use them.
