I’m honestly just deeply interested in this guy every time I hear about him.
Not because I think he’s smart, on to something, or at all worthwhile though.
It’s just…. Kind of morbidly entertaining to watch a man spend so much time and money to deal with an obvious and incredible fear of death.
He’s going to die some day, and probably from one of these things he’s paying for to avoid dying. It’s Qin Shi Huang shit.
And, ya know what? There are some truly wonderful and interesting works of philosophy dealing with his exact problem, but our boy is too much of a tech bro to even consider that someone may have found a way to deal with the fear of death a few thousand years ago.
At least he’s using all of the anti aging treatments on himself like a lab rat. Only he will have to suffer if something goes terribly wrong. And maybe something does work and it’ll be actually useful to everyone else.
That’s where I’m at on this. The dude is a major dork for trying to de-age himself BUT, like you said, he’s the test subject! There’s a long and storied history of self-experimentation leading to discoveries.
I probably don’t support how he made his wealth (haven’t looked into it) but I support his freedom to do what he wants with his body.
Wouldn’t it be ironic if through his “research” he finds a working anti aging cream but it doesn’t work on him because of all the other shit he took, so he becomes the only one who ages.

So, fuck it, burn that cash bud.

This is the same guy that’s using his teenage son as a blood donor too though right? That’s the part I’m not okay with.
Yeah that one was a bit fucked up, but at least he isn’t doing it anymore after finding out it does absolutely fuck all for him.

If only.
I just hope that it wouldn’t be a treatment that would be only affordable to billionaires.
We don’t need the aristocrats to live forever.
Honestly he should just put his soul in a painting
