Worse, he thinks he was just unlucky that he happened to get sick, and thinks his “success” proves he was right all along. Meanwhile, his “success” was entirely built on leeching off other people and abusing charity.
The sad part is that he couldn’t put two and two together. Health problem interrupting your job? It’s not like poor people ever have to deal with health problems, they’re just lazy, right? /s
I mean, he’s lucky he could bail on poverty. His dad got sick, and he didn’t have to stop working to care for his dad. He was seeing a doctor regularly to monitor his health, and could call it when his health started to really suffer, after just 10 months.

The luck bit really clashes with the survivorship bias.

How was he paying for the damn doctors during his experiment
Obviously he wasn’t going to stop paying for health insurance, only a fool would do that

He was also nowhere near 1 million bucks with two months left.
And this charity and help wouldn’t exist if the world actually worked like he wants it to.
