Well, one hundred million US dollars is indeed not a small number.
As long as Dean agrees to Gates' acquisition, it means he'd immediately gain forty-five million US dollars in cash.
If his heart were a shade darker, directly refusing to acknowledge the financing from Sequoia Capital and KeyPoint Ventures, then that number would become fifty-six million US dollars.
To be honest, that amount of money is enough for Dean to live worry-free for the rest of his life, but it's still not enough to make him part of the 1%, not to mention the 0.1%.
What's most important is that it becomes very dangerous when you have so much wealth but lack the ability to protect it.
You must prove yourself, show your muscles, display your money-making abilities, and even being laughed at by others is fine—you just can't be worthless.
Otherwise, everyone will leave you, including your wealth.
