Fortune is doing a follow-up article here on America's 40 Richest Under 40, a collection of dot-com revolutionaries and former media darlings. These are *not* the people i give a shit about, and not representative of what the era really meant to normal folks, but it is interesting reading. Check out Josh Harris, former pseudo.com guru, and his bizarre plans from his compound. Word on the street is that he is camped out there with guns. A lot of guns.

And those who escaped with cash are taking it easy--Joy Covey, formerly of Amazon.com, my alma mater, has been on sabbatical (retired) and got her pilot license, travelled a lot and built a foundation. This is a woman who used to brag about how she didn't actually need to sleep--evidently, that sort of thing catches up with you.
