we need more non tech women to marry and divorce craven tech men so that at least half of these scrooge like fortunes can get donated

edit: id love to tally all the donations done by techies and compare them to how much of bezos fortune has ended up routed to charity via his ex

If you're a tech billionaire, you don't marry unless you are incredibly stupid.

Altman and Thiel are also gay, so theres that too.

No idea where this comes from; I wasn't talking about a literal family tree but a figurative one (I grew up with Rock Family Trees)

Also: Altman is married.

i think i was trying to make the point that the type of person to make a shitload of money tends to be the type of person to hold onto a shitload of money

... Being gay does not limit altman or theil from getting married...

And last I checked, plenty of tech billionaires are married and by no stretch of the imagination stupid.
