This letter written by Andrew Lahde departing from the hedge fund debacle, it is a fantastic summary of what is wrong with today’s world.

Today I write not to gloat. Given the pain that nearly everyone is experiencing, that would be entirely inappropriate. Nor am I writing to make further predictions, as most of my forecasts in previous letters have unfolded or are in the process of unfolding. Instead, I am writing to say goodbye.
