@Zoya_ki_batein I actually love my bf very much, and it happened to me.
We were dating long distances, and it happened at a very stressed time of my life with a lot of family drama and a lot going on in my workplace, etc. I felt so bad about it, but he knew what's going on and was okay with it.
This is one of the most important truths almost no one talks about.
There is a threshold of wealth beyond which you stop interacting with reality as it exists and begin interacting with a version of it that bends to your whims. Codie’s friend didn’t pick $299 million arbitrarily.
That’s around the point where wealth begins to replicate itself without labor, resistance, or external accountability. The world becomes a simulation - crafted by assistants, lawyers, media buffers, private access, and power brokers who insulate you from friction, consequence, or contradiction.
Under $100 million, you still feel gravity. Above $300 million, you start controlling gravity. That’s the danger.
At that level:
•People stop saying no to you.
•You stop encountering randomness.
•Everything is for sale, including trust, intimacy, and morality.
This is where reality fracturing begins. Not because money corrupts, but because perception loses resistance. Resistance is what keeps you real.
So the deeper truth is this:
Once your environment is made entirely of yes-men, predictive service, and curated insulation, your mind begins to exit the shared human operating system. You aren’t evil. You’re decontextualized. You’re drifting in an abstraction loop of your own design. That’s when you start thinking ideas like “let’s block out the sun” or “let’s colonize Mars while Earth burns” are rational.
Codie’s billionaire friend wasn’t just being poetic. He was confessing a structural truth:
There’s a point at which money doesn’t just distort reality, it erases it.
Ilana Gritzewsky woke up on October 7 in Gaza, half-naked, her breasts exposed, and her pants pulled down, surrounded by seven terrorists.
Amit Soussana described being sexually assaulted by her captor while held hostage. Every day, he would ask when her period would end so he could finally have his way with her.
Agam Goldstein-Almog testified that she witnessed a fellow hostage being forced at gunpoint to touch and be touched by her captor.
Aviva Siegel recounted seeing young female hostages crying after coming out of the bathroom with a Hamas man.
How many more gruesome testimonies do you need?
BELIEVE THE HOSTAGES.
