jtl··on Ask HN: What to do after $8M (all cash, post tax) exit?
There's nothing to freak out about, you hit the jackpot. First of all I would say head to bogleheads and educate yourself a bit on investing and personal finance.

This is not financial advice, but if it was me I'd personally just live off the interest and spend the rest of my days doing what I enjoy.

jtl··on As women have more equal opportunity, the more their preferences differ from men
Interesting, most of the data shows the opposite effect to what you may be implying:

I am sorry I don't follow. You think most Muslims grow up to gangsters? There's about 1.6bn Muslims in the world, and the majority of them do not engage in criminal activities. Have you ever been to a Muslim country? Crime rates in some of those places is ridiculously low compared to some western countries (i.e. UAE etc)

First of all that is looking at British Muslims who are a tiny minority of the 1.6-2 billion Muslims in the world.

Maybe take a look at the number of muslim civilians killed in Somalia, Iraq, Syria, Pakistan, Bangladesh by the number of Muslim extremists. It's a lot more than you seem to think.

Except you are completely wrong with your hypothesis or understanding of the situation. This is an issue with Hacker News, so called armchair experts providing their analysis.

The majority are not complicit in anything. Fundamentalists have killed more muslims in a year in some of these countries than in total in the west or any other non Muslim country.

This rhetoric that somehow muslim populations don't cooperate with law enforcement when in fact they have been the greatest victims is frankly dishonest.

I think a lot of people would benefit from looking at the facts rather than trying to push their pseudoscientific theories on the internet.

The issue here is actually pretty clear cut. You have a stateless people systematically killed and eradicated by Buddhist extremists. I suggest people do a deep dive on the actual crisis.
