* sincere question.

I agree that he is “probably doing fine money-wise.” But you’re right. I’ll ask him if I can get him dinner or donate to a favoured charity.

I didn't mean to imply anything about Matt Levine or his financial well-being. I'm all about supporting people who I believe in, and personally I appreciate uos writing.

I'm less in favor of propping up inefficient organizations as a byproduct. Bloomberg is a bit sus at this point, I'm not clear on whether the top has your and my best interests at heart.
