A ton of machismo; typifies the bored, well-off attitude that what counts as achievement is invading other cultures and peoples' lives, meeting "interesting" people, and having stories. Living up to a liquor ad. Very cosmopolitan, very New York finance/entrepreneur. Topper all the way.

At the end of the day, it's just stories. No value added, no responsibilities taken (search the post for any inkling of responsibility or sacrifice), just alighting around the globe seeing how the noble savage lives.

And the lesson he gets from it? That people are either lazy or determined. That's weird because I live in NYC too and I see a bunch of people working their asses off, some of them getting by pretty handsomely but most not, but at least they're trying. I don't see that many lazy people, though I could see how I would if I saw the world through a jerk lens.
