Lots of these people exist. They're small business owners that aren't chasing huge profits, but have built something both profitable and sustainable without compromising their free time.
Sadly, we normalise the "founder" as someone chasing after Google and Amazon, rather than the person that didn't want to work for someone, built something that people like, and are able to live off of what they make from it. I've watched people build tools for fewer than five clients, stick a retainer on lifetime support, and live off of a modest salary that lets them work fewer hours than a normal job, with a good enough salary that they are protected if business goes south and they need to find a salaried job.

Ah, clearly written by a man who himself reads “book” every day. Yay, Book!

You haven't read Book written by Author, yet?
-
I was a fan of Author's early works, but lately it's all been downhill.

Wake up, read the word "book", done.
For ease, you can paint it on your bedroom wall

So he's looking for an unemployed person who is already rich.
-
Step one: inherit a ton of wealth.
Step two: dabble

how many hours are in this man’s day

Dude never said how much profit the founder has to make. Anyone with a company that only does a small amount of paid work every couple weeks qualifies. Even after overheads those are probably profits and the founder has plenty of time for his numerous hobbies and pristine sleep schedule.
Not sure what kind of ROI this entrepreneur expects from investing there but hey, it's his money.
-
Or maybe you can combine activities: Running and making profits by stealing and running away?

-
"doesn't compromise on sleep" = sleeps 4 hours every other day
-
The message doesn't mention work at all. I could easily do all of those things if I didn't have to work myself.
-
Since I contract my work through my own one man company, I technically meet all his requirements. However, I can promise you I'm not the guy he's talking about because I'm not fucking over workers.

Easy: live by the Venusian calendar. Each 'day' is 243 Earth days, so you only have to 'write code and read book' once every 243 days, and 'lift weights and run' once every Venusian 'week', i.e. every 1,701 Earth days. Your calendar is always open because no one understands it.

I'd prefer somebody who doesn't do cocaine managing the lives and finances of others, thanks.

Yup. A good small-business CEO is someone works with customers and translates that into tasks for employees and changes in direction for the company. I think that should translate to a CEO of a larger company, because once you lose that direct interaction w/ the customer, you become out of touch. It doesn't have to be every day, but it should be often enough to really get a feel for how things in your company work.

Linkedin is this place where I cringe so hard every time I read something. It's hard for me to understand how people can be so much into the matrix.
I liked the term npc for these people. Non player characters. They are just like Ai generated spam.
It's like in a game and you walk up to a npc and he is a very stereotypical character with no surprises, no depth to his character at all, just surface level attributes. He talks about obvious things as if they were somehow unique or special. It's like he was born yesterday. He doesn't have the ability to see through his own programming and believes everything. He views himself as a "professional" and wears a suit or tries to imitate Steve Jobs.
This is how I feel about these linkedin people. Lols.

The corporate grindset. It really is a different world for these wannabe c-suite politicians that live in their insulated world.

I assume much of it is performative too.

“Do you get to the Cloud District very often? Oh, what am I saying, of course you don’t.”

Have a disability preventing you from running and/or lifting? This person clearly thinks you're unworthy.

I'm not sure exactly what "having an open calendar" means. Assuming a not fully locked one, it's just any boss that does 9 am to 6 pm, either because the company runs itself or, less likely, because he is in fact able to delegate.
The other stuff is a quite common combination of hobbies for a certain lifestyle.
My bet would be somebody that inhereted a company, so as not to be consumed by the "hustle" but is not a complete moron (so he's not ego driving the company into a wall).
-
I'm not sure about the question but the answer is drugs. Either for the investor, or for the founder. Probably both.
The alternative is someone who pulls by their bootstraps after 1M daddy's loan, but that's harder to accomplish and may take several reincarnation cycles. Not worth being a literal leech couple times to figuratively leech on society once.

Sounds like he's looking for unemployed people.
