President Trump’s former lawyer Alina Habba Mildon has been fired by Concord Partners, a secretive company with no public profile, set up by a prominent and wealthy Venezuelan family, which had previously signed Habba Mildon to a $50 million deal.

Habba Mildon had received the contract shortly before Trump pardoned the head of the family, Julio Herrera Velutini, who was facing felony bribery charges in Puerto Rico.

According to The New York Times, Trump recently erupted in anger after learning about Habba Mildon’s $50 million contract. In a letter from last week, Concord Partners said that Habba Mildon was fired due to a “failure to perform duties.” She will still keep $6.5 million that was paid to her, as well as an $8 million signing bonus.

    I’m semi-retired in my 30s, and I agree with you 100%

    I currently have a half dozen or so hobbies I rotate through to fill my time (1 is a passion business that generates a small amount of money)

    Sometimes I’ll spend a few months just focusing on scuba diving, or I’ll be flying all the time. Or I get really into a game and play it for a week straight

    I worked in tech, so I still do tech as a hobby, but it’s nice to be able to do it for months at a time

    Nurture your hobbies. You should at least have something to look forward to other than work

    PS: Also do hobbies with friends. I’m almost never doing anything alone, because it’s more fun with others
