Extremely rich people organizing their tax breaks in a manner that matches their eccentricities. It's like a hedge fund bro investing in a restaurant bc he wants to feel like a baller, only artsy.

If we don’t hear from you, should we assume you’ve surrendered your worldly possessions and are devoting yourself to the spiritual journey?

Oh and report back what flavor the kool-aid is.

There is Great Falls Brewery in Canaan, CT and they have a great variety of beers.

Next weekend in Salisbury, CT they are having their annual Ski Jump Weekend which is pretty unique and a lot of fun to check out. Info here: https://jumpfest.org/events/jumpfest/

Friday night is particularly fun, they do night time target jumping (trying to land closest to the spot) and the Human Dog Sled race.

While you are in the area you can also pop up to the Berkshires in MA via Rt 7 which has tons of antiques shops along the route with several recreational marijuana dispensaries if that is your jam.

Seems to me that once you have a stupid amount of money, the only thing left to do is shape the world in your image, which is potentially bad if you happen to be a dick.
