    I just read his bio on Wikipedia / it seems like he’s done pretty well by living in California. Does he really think he would be as wealthy if he hadn’t lived there?

    I’ve also got to admit I like some of the philanthropies listed there. It’s unfortunate that but got lost somewhere

      It doesn’t matter to him. He can bid everybody else a fond “fuck you, got mine” and start yanking that ladder up behind him.
