On: Why is it hard to make friends over 30? (2012)

[xstartup]

I've have helped lots of people and I am a firm believer of "If you can help, you must". Heck, my wife was also poor but she is the best person I've ever met. She is the only one who can set millions of dollars on fire for me. But over the time, my inability to act indifferent to people's struggle has burned me over a countless number of times. Examples include places where I gave out few hundred thousands in help and got scammed out of millions. These days I am living under the rock so that I do not see others' struggle and jump there to help.

You still make it sound like you see it as some black mark against someone. I doubt you meant to come off that way, but you really did.

Imagine if I said: "Xstartup is (gay,black,jew), but is a really great person"

Sounds bad huh?
