I'd trust Zuck if I had a signed, airtight agreement for a large amount of money he paid into an escrow account for something I owned or was transferring ownership.

He's very close to peak homo economicus. (EDIT: this next point is wrong, the oral history I heard referred to Winklevoss pops, not Zuckerberg, and I misremembered) Which makes sense, given his father is deep in actuarial services.



Zuckerberg’s dad is/was a dentist. Not that the claim makes any sense even if he were an actuary.


Oh man, talk about getting my wires crossed. The Winklevoss' twins dad is the actuary!


"If I were rich, I'd trust other rich people"


Not what I said. I said if legal machinery were in place, I'd be willing.

I would not trust someone simply because we both have significant personal assets.


Have you noticed how legal machinery seems less effective the more money you have?
