Why I Feel Terrible for FTX ex-CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)

I’m tired of great individuals getting a bad rap just because everyone else is out to get them. Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) built a $20+ billion fortune before turning 30. Let’s hear the man out before getting out our pitchforks.

Imagine being one of the most successful, handsome, and wealthiest people on the planet before turning 30 and watching it disappear practically overnight. Unfortunately, this is the reality that Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF)is facing as we speak.

As I write, SBF is under surveillance in the Bahamas. I pray he is stationed in his $40 million penthouse at the Albany Club in the Bahamas. Unfortunately, due to all of this commotion, he was forced to list this modest residence (for a billionaire). I found some pictures online.

This “penthouse” pool doesn’t even feature a diving board or a slide. And the deep end is probably a joke. This illustrates his salt of the earth and “ordinary man” appeal.
