They'll get shares they're not allowed to sell for a hundred years. That'll teach those capitalist speculators.

If you dont stop now and then to improve frontal lobes and your life, it's like saying that you don’t have time to stop for petrol because you are too busy driving.

Could he not get involved in the real world?

It's a fair question. Happened to one of my acquantainces. He started a company from his software idea but was slowly removed by the "business people".
