Yah everyone is reading way too much into this man, he's just a mentally unwell incel who figured out how to get money from people. His emotional state is probably a mess but it doesn't mean he's about to cave in. He has more money than God and he isn't going to crash out so easily.

Hot tip: it's a LOT easier to secure huge amounts of funding than you think, it certainly doesn't take intelligence, just good connections and a complete lack of self-awareness, I know from unfortunate experience that you can secure millions in financing simply by sounding sure of yourself and talking in ways that are too convoluted for everyone to understand... I have literally seen million-dollar checks handed over because everyone in the room didn't want to feel stupid.
