1. Comfort/dread in the fact that money does not help anybody make better decisions, it just widens the range of decisions they are allowed to make.
2. Sadness that this is even news. I feel like we are all just violating a man’s personal life. I don’t think something like this really belongs on HN.
3. Just general ambivalence, life is messy. I’m sure if everybody knew all my warts they’d read a lot worse than this article. Why is Jeff being held to a higher standard?
