    You aren’t allowed to participate in my pathetic little joke because being one of the greatest minds on Hacker News deprives you of that luxury ;) [0] I on the other hand can die happy knowing you answered one of my comments!

      Well, you’ve done some good work yourself, based on your profile: > Investor, husband, father, ex-Microsoft. Creator of vuepressbook.com. Being a good husband and a father while common, still involves effort, and is an accomplishment in itself. Also, being an investor is way to have a big positive impact on the world! So is writing that little book on Vuepress! And you can still more creative stuff (even if you’re close to retirement) in your life—especially if you have saved up a FIRE level of money.

        You are super kind, and man do you speak the truth. I have both a home and a farm that are paid off, so I know my handicapped kids will have a place to live after I die. House and farm both within 2 miles of Microsoft!

A motherfucking polymath at this point From wikipedia: A polymath (Greek: πολυμαθής, polymathēs, "having learned much"; Latin: homo universalis, "universal man") is an individual whose knowledge spans a substantial number of subjects, known to draw on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific problems.
