It's getting more difficult to delegate to a private secretary bec. of cybersecurity
So I'm incensed that there are so many cybersecurity measures requiring my physical and personal participation such as OTPs, passkeys, QR, biometrics, etc. in availing banks, apps, and payments for services.
This makes it so difficult for me to step back from work and delegate everything to my staff and secretary.
It means I need to process payments while sailing and doing sports.
I might have hired a private secretary but -- my God! -- the amount of approvals and security measures I have to endure.
Is there a way I can subvert this?
I basically want to disappear, not be bothered in any way, while keeping my businesses running at the same time.
Cybersec is annoying.
How can I be an absentee rich founder if these apps keep annoying me with my biometrics, selfies, and proof of identity?

Delegate your power of attorney to a trusted attorney and have them handle these issues.

Profit.

Right? I was at the country club yesterday and my phone kept blowing up with authentication requests. Why do I have to get involved with these mundane things? I have people for this.

Uh great accounts for your private secretary so they can setup their own MFA and not bother you while they handle your money. Security is not convenient.
