    In a way, this is true. Not if you build a software social network, but if you build up your personal social network by pandering the right people, and forgoing your morals, this is feasible. Requires a ton of luck still, but it’s at least more feasible than creating a digital social network in modern society. Million dollars really isn’t all that much anymore. If I was morally bankrupt I’d start by making friends with health insurance big wigs.

    Yeah no. Jk. This guy’s a fucking moron

      To be clear, it’s an L Ron Hubbard quote originally about starting a religion, to my knowledge Altman didn’t really say that.
