I told my parents how much my equity is worth once it vests and my mom sent me a link to a Birkin Bag and my dad sent me a link to a zoo's Instagram page with a video of some capybaras and said "one of these"

my sister wants an Xbox. She is being sneaky because she knows I will feel bad about the feasibility of this purchase now and simply buy it for her

I'm collecting funds on behalf of the Derek Zoolander Center For Kids Who Can't Read Good! It's a tax deductible gesture of kindness that you can share your generosity w via Venmo or CashApp, pls DM for details. Each bit of equity ensures one less bit of cognitive decline due to LLM use. Ty

I don't know what your family relationship is, but it seems like once people get nice salaries there family acts entitled to your wealth.

Worth noting that capybaras are social animals and really shouldn't be owned in increments of less than 2. Do what you will with that knowledge.

A capybara would be fire but your dad needs 2-3 as they are social animals.

idk what your equity is worth but i ran some numbers a while back and it seemed like one could run a 100-animal capybara domestication project for surprisingly cheap. around a half-mil p/a with under $1mm capex year 1 to get rolling. JUST A THOUGHT

In love with the idea that dad was not asking you for one but actually saying something like โ€œlet me put you on to the good stuff rqโ€

Tell them vest is not exit. Birkin after liquidity, not after a 409A slide. Capybaras get a four year vest. Protect the cap table before it becomes a capybara table.

I donโ€™t think capybaras are that expensive to buy but the guy at the random desert capybara petting zoo I went to gave me a thousand yard stare of horror and was like, โ€œno, no one should ever own these, I wish we didnโ€™tโ€ (apparently very bad animals to keep lol)
