Thiel's Frugal Luxuries
Share
A story about Peter Thiel's unique security arrangements and escape plans, as discussed in Ryan Holiday's book "Conspiracy."
"In that book, it says wherever Peter Thiel goes 24 hours a day, he's got a black Mercedes waiting for him. The car has to be running at all times - that's what he tells them. He has a Mercedes with him all the time.
He also has some residence in New Zealand, and I think there's a jet waiting for him in close vicinity wherever he's going. Just in case if anything bad happens, he could bolt to New Zealand.
[Noah confirms seeing the black Mercedes outside the restaurant where they met Thiel, mentioning it had a disco ball inside]"
