2) I've spent most of my life being lucky. Not always -- right now we're running low on my favorite flavor of La Croix. But in most ways that people think of as "meaningful" and "important" and "not just whining", I've been really lucky.

3) It started early with my parents--both objectively, and in terms of product market fit. I had support, and also the freedom to explore my thoughts. I found a house that I felt at home with in college, and a job I liked after.

4) And along the way, people supported me. When I took the wrong class senior year (oops) a professor intervened to make sure I'd graduate; and when I was growing at Jane Street, I had the best manager I've ever seen.
