When she walked away, I gave my glass to her mother. “You deserve this more than anyone,” I said. 30 seconds after the toast, she hit the floor. “I’m not saying I’m the kind of guy who throws himself a retirement party at 42, like some kind of tech bro messiah who just discovered passive income, but here we are…
