Well don't go killing yourself if that's what the story is about. This story is nihilist. Where is the life? The joy, the little wins, the flowers man! Stop constantly and smell them. Take in the breadth of their humble beginnings and the absolute magic that they spring up from nothing. Madness!

Haha, don't worry, this isn't about me! When writing this, I just wondered what it's like to be a massive hedge fund manager seeing all of your stocks/SPACs extremely red, and went from there. Hard to stop and smell the roses when you've spent your life in an ivory tower and money is measured in AUM rather than the gains realized in real life, you know?
