Congratulations to the author! They basically "won" and did something that most people on HN can only dream of.

My 2 cents: I would devote the remainder of my life to solving problems that the current system is unoptimized for. Things that seem intractable like the housing crisis, homelessness, climate change, food insecurity. Like this guy who is trying to re-green a part of the Sonoran Desert after getting a windfall from helping the El Salvadoran government switch to Bitcoin [1].

I think ultimately the author is going to have to find a very difficult task/goal that will require similar if not greater effort compared to starting Loom.
