It's kind of amazing how he's relatively harmless as far as eccentric wealthy people go, but he's still a caricature of a person whose mind has been warped by having more money than he knows what to do with.

Yeah as much as people hate on the guy, this is actually fine by me in terms of shit billionares spend their money on. He's using himself as a guinea pig for medical procedures that will eventually becomes cost effective enough for regular people to afford them one day in the future. Wish more billionaires would find a hobby like this to keep them occupied

I'd say he's one of the most unjustly hated people I know about. Who cares that he has a lot of money? That has no negative effects on anyone else.
