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.
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.
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.
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.
