Intriguing story, but in a dog-eat-dog world, I wouldn't be surprised if the competition set him up to go down. After all, there are plenty of people like him doing the same who probably just didn't like him.

True, but doesn't the fact that he could have done well without sinking so low- yet did made bad choices and sunk low- actually devalue the high regard people have for him as a 'genius'? That's pretty dumb-ass in my view, I'm just saying.
