Dr. K

a man in his mid 40s was in investment banking moved to private equity has done billion dollar deals that if you read the Wall Street Journal did acquisitions for Fang companies and things like that so he's like as successful as you can get married has kids never divorced and he's like suicidal has a noose in his basement thinks about killing himself every single day why exactly

So here's the key thing to understand.

You can be successful in some dimension, right?

You can look at people like Robin Williams or like, you can look at, there are some stories, which if you're clinically familiar, I'm not gonna comment in specifics, but you can look at a lot of the world's most successful people

by measure of net worth or the positions they hold and things like that.

And you can kind of tell just based on their social media presence, these people are not happy.

Some of them are using tons of drugs.

And the question is why, right?

So you're sort of saying, and I completely agree with you that there's been a democratization of tools.

Like the reason I'm here today is because, I mean, I trained in something that's not this, right?

I just started showing up on the internet and opened my mouth.

That turned into a thing that wasn't possible 100 years ago or even 20 years ago, 30 years ago.

There's absolutely a democratization.

There's absolutely an increased capacity for an individual human being to achieve material success.

Completely agree.

But the reason that I don't really differentiate between a CEO and a homeless person, I've worked in jails, I'll work with anybody, is the fundamental human is the same.

And for some people, they think that material success will bring me happiness, and there's plenty of evidence of that.

I think one of the sad things is that there's a mental health crisis, and I think that really is an economic crisis.

50% of people under the age of 30 still live at home with their parents in the United States.

That's different in India.
