It’s easy for him because he distances himself from that aspect and only deals with what he wants. He hires managers to get their hands dirty for him. It’s just like how I buy my beef in a tidy packet at a glimmering supermarket and don’t have to consider the slaughterhouse at all.

We hear all the time that money can't buy happiness, here in HN no less, and you are saying he has such a perfect life that he doesn't deserve to give any life advice? Who should we be listening to?

Not sure if you spend time to read at all, but what he said is essentially you can't be happy at home if you are miserable at work, and vice versa. Which makes sense to me. Too obvious to be honest.

This is true. But he is directly responsible for the culture that makes many of his employees miserable at work.
