By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

One of my friends shared the story of Hamza Bendellajd on her facebook. I couldn’t find a whole lot of stuff anywhere about him. Probably because he stole FOUR HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS and donated it all to charities in Africa and Palestine.
The Algerian computer science graduate was able to hack over $400 million from 217 banks. When arrested, he refused to make a deal with the government explaining how he was able to do such a thing.

Hamza Bendellajd was the very definition of “chaotic good”.
