the outcome is the same as actually being horrible.

Fuck him-- he still doesn't get it.

Psychopaths and Sociopaths might.

to $750. Being an internet douchebag alone doesn't get the Fed's attention.

His intentions are obvious. Luckily, no one would want to watch this loser, I bet.

I'm sick of this stupid excuse. If you think it would be fun to dick around with people, you are a dick.

Mr. Trump? You listening?

+1

Sorry! I meant "social experiment."

. . .none of that explains a 54 fold increase in the price of a drug, just because you can.

While that's not illegal (obviously), did he really think he was going to get the slightest benefit of the doubt regarding other financial dealings?

His whole explanation is just stupid. And, he is getting sued for a reason.

after he jacked up the price of their life-saving medicine, didn't they?

I can't imagine where he got bail. All accounts say he's broke.

Shame on the Gawker for even giving him the time of day.

...his sorry ass out of jail. Turns out his "wealth" was mostly a shell game and ponzi scheme.

"It was so tough growing up, and Hollywood was telling me if I were successful, I had to be like Gordon Gekko, and I would really just be happier being a hip-hop guy, and mommy and daddy worked hard and sacrificed everything for me, and, well, Greed is Good."

Doesn't matter that his resume is littered with cheats, cons, and poor management.
Living in a fantasy world that he built up with other people's money.

"He's just a poor boy from a poor family, spare him his life from this monstrosity..."

Haele

yeah, right

But, he's an obnoxious, conceited little brat who used the network he got from that school to scam and fiscally bludgeon his way to the top using whatever innate cleverness he could.

And he likes to pretend he did it on his own, when from all appearances (and the evidence of the eventual failures of the hedge funds and other companies he began), he did it on the backs of his hard-working parents and whatever he could skim off the wealthier little trust fund babies of his acquaintance. Just because he was able to jump ship before his funds and businesses failed, or it was discovered how much he was using them as a personal ATM or Ponzi situation, doesn't mean he did any "hard work" on his own

He's Donald Trump without the rich family background.

Haele

Dummy.

Who knew people took matters of life and death (for them) so seriously? Buncha spoilsports is what they are. Can't take a joke. I suggest going and sulking in your room. That will teach us all a good lesson, and then we'll feel sorry for you.

Are not very christian or progressive .........

BTW .... Punching a shit like Shkreli only makes his happy. He feeds off that kind of hate. Better to take all his money away and take away any chance he'll ever have of making more than minimum wage....... Making rich guys poor seems to be the best way to hurt them.

Karma is a bitch.

... and getting away with it. That doesn't make you any less guilty though.

If you "experiment" with a public persona that makes you look like an asshole, nobody will want to know the real you. If you were actually a good person, your "experiments" would not cause harm to others.

He replied "thanks mr i believe everything i read in the news"

no remorse, no wrongdoing, places blame on others, all about me etc. ............ the list is long but he doubles down on the checklist the more he talks and exposes his psychopathy for us to examine.

He's going to be a classic example in texbooks for future studies.

Change stories. That's what he seems to be doing.

Ripping off the sick and dying to generate fast cash to prop up a Ponzi scheme is not the act of a man who has any ethics or humanity.

That would be you. Own it. You bought it.

That acting like a total asshole doesn't go down well with judges. He knew he was under investigation but continued to act like a 4 year old spoiled rotten brat. It will not help his case.

So don't believe this sudden turnaround for 1 second.

...and is now trying to walk it back a bit.

Dude, you didn't do the perp walk because you're an asshole - real or pretend - you did the perp walk because you broke the law and defrauded investors.

For a while. Didn't work too well for him.

Which could mean he finally realizes, maybe for the first time in his life, that he's in the kind of deep shit that he can't rich-brat his way out of.

Scary.

Hate to be him.

But I cannot understand why Bernie and the other Democrats did not use him as a personal example of greed and arrogance in their debate the other night. Who can defend his actions?

Where is he going with this? It won't help him if there is proof beyond a reasonable doubt that he committed the crime!

...and was only foolin' when he said, "Your money or your life!"?

Cool story, bro. But you still get to go to prison (I hope) for your Ponzi Scheme with investors.
