That is not a very special occurrence. I’d argue you can find almost anyone with access to a million dollars online. Just go to Twitter or so.

Take a look at the hn reaction to your post, this is a special occurence. Regardless it's your decision and I imagine you have your reasons.

Finding such a thing might be somewhat special, but (referring to your comment) having theoretical access to money is definitely not a special thing.
