    Nah, nowhere near as bad as the psycho billionaires. Doesn’t seem to actually have much controversy at all, other than spending a fortune on yachts and using them for celebrity parties.

    Outside of that, he seemed to be pretty reclusive and contributed a lot of funding to the arts, conservation, and scientific research.

    I think him being a musician did actually impact things positively. Maybe the knowledge that art can bring people together helped, I don’t know. Then again, I don’t know what he was like in person, but he seems relatively “normal” for a billionaire.

    Not the level of Chuck Feeney, but still okay.
