From the article he sounds like just another rich guy with a god complex.

He says existence is the most important thing in the world, but also says he supports RFK Jr's attempt to burn down the whole medical & health industry because it will cause innovation as people to scramble to fill the voids -- while ignoring the inevitable death and suffering that will result.

He says money doesn't matter much to him, but becomes irate when the journalist asks him about his ex-fiancee who he claims tried to extort money from him. And he sympathizes with people who had their illustrious careers destroyed by the me too movement when allegations of sexual abuse surfaced about them.

And then there's subtle hints that reveal more than he realizes about his thinking:

> Most people today spend every waking moment pursuing wealth; and the time they’re not spending pursuing wealth, they’re pursuing some sort of status or prestige.

I don't agree -- most people in his circle of rich guys do this. It's revelatory because it shows his understanding of the world is quite myopic. It's the dreaded main-character syndrome inherent to so many of these rich assholes.

Exactly. Whenever anyone says "most people..." without having actual data to back it up, what they're really saying is "me and my friends..."
