In this episode of the podcast, Sam Harris speaks with Sam Bankman-Fried about effective altruism. They discuss how he became the wealthiest self-made billionaire under 30, (this is before we knew that he stole the money) what might go wrong with cryptocurrency (this is before we knew that its just a ponzi scheme), … how not to stigmatize wealth, wealth redistribution, norms
Harris and SBF belittle proposals for a tax on unrealized gains
Harris tells SBF that Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren have preposterous notions that no one can become a billionaire by their own legitimate wealth creation. Harris asks if SBF isn’t the poster boy for how wrong Sanders and Warren are.

In fairness, I think SBF provided a nice illustration of the problem with trusting mark-to-market valuations.
Nice to know that Harris is still a clown.

You should also listen to this episode where he talks about SBF right after the news dropped (before the arrest).
Have so many friends that find this guy the epitome of solid conversation. I really don’t want to figure out why I don’t like the guy, just felt he was off ,good to know my intuition was on point.
