The boat full of dead arseholes is still the top news story apparently. Even though there's no more actual news about it apart from, 'man who fell in the sea 36 hours ago and hasn't been seen since now presumed dead'. Next they'll be telling us bears shit in the woods.

You tell.me?
I mean..the guy became rich.. but not from a privileged background
That surely is a different type of wealth to say the King Of England type of super privileged wealth or someone like Maxwell ?
people here seem to detest him because HP paid over the top for his company which in turn made him super rich.

Have you read the title and premise of the thread?
Yes and I'm not sure this guy is "evil"

Not acting like a shadowy assassin is exactly the behaviour of a shadowy assassin.
And killing people with cars is basically allowed, so it's a very smart choice of murder weapon.

He’s certainly a bad person if he has that much money

You'll need a better argument than his mum was a nurse. Hitler's mum was a household servant. Salt of the earth.
What figure tips someone into the "evil" column?

You're almost certainly not a good person if you accept enough money and assets to be termed a billionaire, and definitely not if you kept it.
No one individual human is worth billions of pounds. Not a single one of us. So if you've acquired and hoarded it, you are a net negative on society.
For the record, I almost never take joy in someone's death, as I don't in this case.
Those you are related to and associated with are not automatically guilty by association.

Ok.. but I think this man gave employment to people. Did he hoard it all? I don't know that he did. Maybe other posters know more about him and how he treated his workforce.
I also take no joy in a freak accidental death...unless the dead person is a convicted pedophile.

Yes, and spending it on a super yacht is a bit of a giveaway

Met up with Hannah Courtoy a week next Tuesday
Tbf in this case a man got off a serious charge cos he had the money to buy his way out of it, his top lawyer and banker, both instrumental in this crime goin unpunished, are also missing presumed dead, as is his fellow accused. The lord works in mysterious ways....

"gave employment to people"? He had jobs that needed doing and so hired people to do them, and by the sounds of it reaped the rewards that they earned and he didn't for himself.
If you need the labour of others to do work for you, then the value created by that labour (not by you) should be recognised and distributed accordingly.

Because you naturally assume it's all simply part of the exhibition of skill and showmanship designed to create a sense of joy and wonder in the audience...?

No. It’s because they’re all cunts.

Well, I can assure you that none of them are billionaires, at least.
Well..if we go by the thread title it's a Billion.
Mike Lynch was worth $500 million.
"According to the Sunday Times Rich List in 2024, however, the couple were worth £500m"
Mike Lynch's net worth dropped before Bayesian superyacht sinking
Mike Lynch's wife Angela Baceras survived the sinking but the couple's 18 year old daughter Hannah is among those who remain missing, with one body recovered.
So maybe only half evil then...

Aren’t we all?
Can't see you as half evil either.
