……给你一种想法：只要你坚持得够久，你就能站在世界之巅，成为精英的一部分——而你大概还不是（即使你生在那里）。我觉得银行也类似。（后来我读了《Richistan》，把它和观察联系起来，才意识到这个“精英”其实只是最底层，是财富多层世界里的“雇员”层；这些雇员，如果无法忽视这一点，通常……
…you the idea that you'll be at the top of the world if only you stick it out long enough, part of the elite that you presumably aren't yet (even if born there). I think banks are similar. (I later read Richistan, linked it with observations, and realized this "elite" was really just the lowest rung, the "employee" layer in the multi layered world of wealth; that these employees, if unable to ignore it, generally…
……利润和投资回报。像运营营利组织一样运营非营利组织有巨大的好处。我强烈推荐读《Richistan》里关于“Performance Philantrophy”的那一章：http://www.amazon.com/Richistan-Journey-Through-American-Wea...
…profits and return on investment. There is a huge benefit in running non-profit just like for-profit organization. I would highly recommend reading chapter on "Performance Philantrophy" from the book Richistan: http://www.amazon.com/Richistan-Journey-Through-American-Wea...
>记住，他们真的生活在另一个世界。我最喜欢的社会学书之一讲的就是富人实际上生活在另一个国家——《Richistan》。
>Remember, they live literally in another world. One of my favorite sociology books is about rich people practically living in a different country, Richistan.
他们一直都很蠢。《Richistan》把富人生活在其中的纯粹不加掩饰的堕落描述得非常好：https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/512029.Richistan 人们只是终于能看到他们有多蠢了，我亲眼见过这种情况……
They have always been dumb. Richistan describes the pure unalloyed depravity the rich live in really well: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/512029.Richistan People are just finally able to see how dumb they are I’ve seen this in action…
……不同情景以及 b. 每种情景发生的概率；来计算 NPV，从而判断投资的合意程度。这个圈子里一些更极端的角色记录在《Richistan》[1] 和《The $12m stuffed shark》[2] 里。“暴发户”的共同特点是他们极度专注、擅长自己的工作，不让玩乐渗透进来。如果我有闲钱的话……
…different scenarios and b. the probability of each happening; to calculate the NPV and therefore desirability of the investment. Some of the more extreme characters from this world are documented in "Richistan" [1] and "The $12m stuffed shark" [2]. The common trait amongst the "nouveau riche" is that they are intensely focused and good at their work, not letting their fun permeate. If I had spare capital right…
“在研究我的书《Richistan》时，最令我惊讶的发现之一是，如今许多富人当年在学校表现并不好。事实上，他们中很多人没上过大学——或者上了也很快退学了。”他除了 Bill Gates、Mike Zuckerberg、Steve……还提到别人了吗？
"One of the most surprising discoveries for me in researching my book Richistan was that many of today’s rich didn’t do that well in school. In fact, many of them didn’t go to college — or if they did, they quickly dropped out." Does he go beyond Bill Gates, Mike Zuckerberg, Steve…
