I don't understand this thread. He's not some saint. He's a member of the 1%. He's in the same circles as all of those investment bankers who benefited from the 2008 financial crisis while everyone else lost their homes.
So he happens to be rich, so what? That doesn't make him a bad person, or anything else. If there was evidence that he was part of any of the dirty dealing that went on in the lead-up to the subprime crisis and all of the follow-on stuff, then that would be one thing. But up to this point, I haven't heard anything to suggest that. Are you aware of something like that, or is this strictly a sentiment rooted in "guilt by association"?
I'm not enamoured of the man but pretending that he's some cocaine-sniffing master of the universe is not congruent to the truth. He's a successfully enormously cheap investor.
