On its maiden flight, Mark Zuckerberg flew his brand-new, $80 million private jet from California to his mammoth 1,300-acre estate in Hawaii, burning 5,500 kilograms of fuel and releasing 19 tons of CO₂ into the atmosphere

This guy is living a wonderful life. Forget about Global Warming just have a great time. He's looking happier than I've ever seen him.
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

He has three children. No doubt they will have children too.

Yes their money will enable them to avoid facing reality for a long time.

Yes, except they maybe a little more woke than Daddy! The young ones seem to be these days.
We can hope anyway.

It is a very pretty plane, looks lovely.
$80 million though, could have helped a lot of people. It might have made small difference to our world, & a big difference to quite a lot of people.
Nobody needs $80 million.

$80Million is peanuts to Zuckerberg, did you see all the other stuff he has?

I wonder though if that is part of growing up. Maybe it isn't until we get old that we see just how unimportant the various bits of our life actually were, and where the value really lay. Those bits we keep, the rest passes away. Life is all about learning lessons...

That may be it...we should hope he ages soon,then!
Its odd though, that we can't really fully understand each stage of life until we're either living it or have been through it, & I was just thinking about that yesterday, eldest granddaughter's 34th birthday so she's in the midst of parenting & studying for a career in a few years, a really very busy time which seems to be the case for most in the 20s,30s,40s age bracket.
Often its only when we're older we can draw breath & reflect a bit.
