>>106810559I don't approve but I certainly wouldn't have spent that money creating a new B2B serverless silicon valley shit.

How is whatsapp monetised? How does it make money?

>>106810559>shitty chat appHow though? That's what makes no sense to me.
>>106810559I'm not sure what I'd do with essentially unlimited money. Probably buy a larger property and set it up as a nice hobby farm. I'd also funnel a lot of money into the Linux phone platform so I can ditch android.
>>106810559I guess. I would probably just buy one house and NEET in it eternally.
>>106810559No I would just build a home farm for my kids and breed like a rabbit securing the future of a few generations that wouldn't have to focus on mindless wagecucking and could change the world instead
>>106810559I'd buy a racing track and a bunch of beater cars so that my friends and me could race and crash

>>106814153tell me more about the yachts
>>106810559I mean thats just plain white version of "hood rich" lifestyle. I'd rather more rich people like Musk or even Zucc or Bezos as they just continue to build out products/companies that create value in one form or another. The world needs more useful products that needs to be scaled up, innovated, brought to the masses.

>>106815610dunno, you are either a seething commie that wants to take his stuff away or you want the same life, no in-between
Personally I think it would be better to be that rich and completely unknown and off the grid, but still able to go anywhere. But what does it matter, I’m a low IQ brokie pontificating on what the neo-kings should do with their eye watering gobs of capital
>>106815721I guess it's possible if your wealth does not come form a very public transaction like whatsapp. You can have a tiny percentage from some companies and still be a billionaire from the dividends alone. 0.1% from the biggest market cap companies would still net you hundreds of millions per year.
>>106815674I get to waste money I made how I want he gets to waste his. The only commie thing I support in this case is a high inheritance tax, his kids want to waste money they should make it in the first place
>>106810578Based
>>106811204Is. Disgusting fucking Israeli
>>106815778I'm for 0% inheritance tax, what's the point of making money beyond a certain point if your progeny can't get it in full?

>>106818163well he pretty much made yet another mass surveilance tool for the usual suspects, so he contributed to a worse life for everyone. yet I don't blame, look at what happened to telegram dude

>>106810559More rich people need to live like him instead of devoting their lives to “Reshaping the world” and influencing politics. If you’re a billionaire then just fuck of to your yachts and your islands and stop trying to be the next Peter Thiel or George Soros
I'm jelly
he looks extremely jewishand op tells me he acts like one too>not surprised
>>106821377he is kek, physiognomy is real
i'd want to start a museum. Something as grand as the Getty would burn through the $20B very quickly, if it's even a sufficient amount. I'd only build it somewhere that it's perfectly legal for security guards to fuck up vandals and thieves with impunity.
>>106822559that's less than 500 mil kek, unless you meant the exhibitions as well
>>106810559<img of office space guy>What would you do with 20 bil?Nothing, what would you do?>2 girls at the same time.You're a retard if you think otherwise.
>>106815535>>106815531>>106815514You can get a half decent yacht for sub six figs if you're not a fucking retard.Although I guess this turns into a toyota vs Lamborghini situation.

>>106826745Let me guess, you love monopolies, rich pedophile jews and H1B visas? Society allowed this motherfucker to monopolize text communications because they're too stupid to understand the ramifications. All of that capital is gone forever. By the way marxists are pulling your side of the rope.
>>106815466More like they scam you once you give them custody of your slush fund, like what happened with Gates, Rockefeller, and many other naive philanthropists.If you want to change the word, i’d go hunting for talent personally and then assemble that A-team to get the job done.
>>106817702If you see ads on whatsapp you are most likely indian.>WhatsApp has not been profitable for Facebook (now Meta) since its acquisition in 2014, despite its massive user base and significant growth. When Facebook acquired WhatsApp for approximately $19 billion, the messaging app was unprofitable, reporting a net loss of $138 million in 2013, largely due to stock-based compensation, though its operating loss was around $40 million. Five years after the acquisition, in 2019, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg acknowledged that WhatsApp remained unprofitable and could be cannibalizing time users spent on Facebook and Instagram, particularly in markets like India. >While WhatsApp has not generated direct profits, Meta has begun monetizing the platform through initiatives like WhatsApp Business, Click-to-WhatsApp Ads, and WhatsApp Pay, particularly in markets such as India. However, these efforts have not yet translated into significant profitability, and the app continues to be a major investment for Meta rather than a direct revenue generator.>Particularly in markets like India.
If I had money I would live in a nursing home.
>>106812521Reminds me of someone.
I will probably do amateur rally in old rare sport cars
>>106823709He said models.
>>106827173oh no no no
seems this nigga is in the news right nowhttps://nypost.com/2025/10/03/business/inside-the-legal-spat-between-billionaire-jan-koum-and-interior-designer-remi-tessier/>apparently his long time interior designer has inflated the prices of items for years kekIn one example, Tessier allegedly told Koum he purchased “two dozen hand-knotted silk and pashmina carpets … from a high-end French carpet manufacturer” — and even provided Tessier with the invoice (which he stated was €642,032, roughly $75,000). >According to the court filings, the rugs were from a completely different supplier and were made of synthetic fibers and were “hand-loomed” rather than “hand-knotted.” Experts cited on the suit concluded the actual value of the rugs was less than half what Tessier said they cost. >The filing alleges that the design did this sort of thing with everything from steak knives to couches. This practice “allowed Tessier to pocket the difference while leaving Koum with products far below the standard he believed he was paying for.”is this a billionaire counting pennies like e petty faggot or is he right to be outraged for being scammed?

>>1068279062 billion users last I checked, that's a quarter of the planet. how has zucc failed to monetize it is beyond me kek, it's still a net loser of money. I guess they use the user data for big ass data research and that's enough for them to justify buying and maintaining it.
I'd invest into education to make it free for everybody, as I believe in that.
>>106827940that's retarded, if people are low IQ education does nothing

>>106827990that's not how it works you absolutely retarded airhead
>>106827940Noble for sure, I'd probably do something like make literature for the local univserity free, at least for certain programs.And I'd probably build some sick playgrounds for kids because that'd be nice, along with great outdoor gyms.As for indulging myself, shit I'd just have a nice home and car, then I'd probably travel and just enjoy hobbies, none of the yacht coke shit. Or maybe I'd get the local theater to play out anime scenes I dno. I would also get 3 big guys in leather straps, oil them up and have them go WWE on this guys ass >>106827943As for the sale, probably.
>>106828108Pic related is almost exactly how I look irl, but I'm a bit taller and a bit heavier. I will WRECK the guys you send and then make you suck me off, twink.
>>106827894I don't even think it's about the money, the kike acts like some neighborhood rich negroid throwing money in the air. Probably his jewish ego just got hurt from getting scammed by some lowly interior designer so he's trying to get back at him.
>>106828152this, he most likely has an astoundingly overinflated ego and opinion of himself. how can he be scammed? it's impossible. then when it happens it triggers some self-doubt and we can't have that.
>>106810559>Does /g/ approve of his actions?Let's see his code first.That's the only way to judge a person.

>>106810559The kind of people that make a successfull product are usually money chasers.If you like making a good product you kinda get bored way before it gets big.So whenever you see someone rich do... nothing particularly interseting, either investing or buying retarded "rich man" things, it's because it's not some curious minded engineer or artist. It's just some business fag.I'd probably try to develop replacements for US soft power. Local hardware, software, services, payment processors, art, games, books, movies, comics, a paneuropean language, etc. All manually chose ofc, minimal delegation.

>>106829464It brings them pleasure if you know what you're doing. I've made girls squirt from anal.
I think /g/ only cares about the mythical "real programmer" archetype. A man that becomes the programming, has broken away from all convention such as materialism, status, social or virtue signaling. He does not worship money like normies do nor does he have any interest in it. His entire existence revolves around code
>>106831304that's called pissing, squirting doesn't exist
>>106831389Bill Gates?
>>106831389What's mythical about this? There's probably plenty of people that primarily just code as their passion. They're not going to be famous ecelebs or anything but probably several of the people that develop hobbyist FOSS stuff fit that bill.
