Bet you never thought you’d read that combination of words anywhere other than on the back of a Dan Brown book, did you.

    Does it cause mental illness, or do you need some level of mental illness to pursue that level of wealth?

        He’d be like one of those hoarders that even breaks the psychologist. I read he was living in his x office with the assistant he was having kids with in a room that had all kinds of live wires hanging from the ceiling. He was doing this because he’s too cheap to buy or rent a house. The wires were hanging from the ceiling because he didn’t want to pay a contractor to fix them so he told an engineer to do it or he was fired. So I am a contractor and I know that you don’t touch another trades work for safety reasons and god knows what was going on with that. So yeah dude is seriously mentally ill
