The curious case of - Benjamin Button - Sam Bankman-Fried. A successful IT entrepreneur, philanthropist, billionaire obsessed with his business.
But, here is a bummer - behind the facade of Steve Jobs' reincarnation turned out to be a sociopath and swindler who stole $9 billion and his fortune multiplied to zero in just one week.
