If I become a gazillionaire I’m just absolutely giving all my close allies $1m each bc I know they’ll spend it in value-creating ways I’m confused about why I don’t know of any stories of this sort of thing

I think rational people (big if) would find an unconditional $1m more of an equalizer. As long as Tyler has fuck-you money he has power, but thanks to diminishing of returns it goes up as my wealth goes down.

Not sure I get it. My power almost definitely goes up if I give $1m to each of my people, because they’ll go on to acquire resources and influences I don’t have access to/wouldn’t have thought of/don’t have time to acquire

I think that's most of it. I have plenty of friends who could call me up and say "I can't make rent this month. Can I have a thousand dollars?" and I'd say yes, but they'll never ask unless *really* desperate because people are weird about money / want to be self-sufficient.

If you want to give your allies 1MM, what you have to do is wait for them to have an investment opportunity and invest in them. "Hey, if any of you are interested in starting a company, let me know. I'd like to invest."
