Ask HN: Online community where high net worth individuals hang out?

3 pointsMarkVenison11 comments

If I wanted to chat with millionaires and billionaires, where do you think they are most likely to hang out online? Which community?

View on HN

https://www.the007percent.com/ I happen to know the founder, you can look him up on wikipedia, I have little trust in his website project though.

Pretty much only whatsapp groups from what I've seen. I'd guess there are a disproportionate amount of millionaire on HN than other online communities of this size. I know at least 10 people who daily HN and have a net worth > $5MM.

Hmm I thought so, I was wondering if there was something that had an even higher concentration

Can you share any of these whatsapp groups names?

As you would expect. I'm in one with a few dudes who are worth over a bil given their exit sizes, all folks who have IPO'd cloud companies. It's got a very imaginative name "cloud guys" - it's mostly posting in linkedin urls and asking if anyone can make an intro, couple of them natter on about their kids nannies sometimes, it's very uninteresting. Thing about these rich people groups is they're actually super boring. Everyone is already rich so it's not like we're swamping trading strategy or whatever, pretty much everything is already managed in these peoples lives they already have access to people they wanna chat with, so there isn't a whole heck of a lot of discuss.

net worth > $5MM ? Low bar...That is a public servant or an EU employee in Luxembourg...

You're using Europe's seventh-smallest country with the second highest earners in the OECD as your benchmark for net worth bar? Interesting.

In case you did not notice...Your post makes the same point I was making :-)

whoosh - ok, got it. Very good. :)

Post "My cybertruck rusted already" on Twitter and a real-life billionaire will chat with you.

You can also go to private parties (aka. furry parties) in Bay Area.

You'll get exclusive access to most of the influential VCs and to HN fellows.
