Hard to square these guys antics with the whole meritocracy of wealth business. Losing half your empire falling for a uh, socialite, on a business trip to LA? Tagged in a log book on the way to an island of ill repute? Getting high out of your mind and picking a fight with your boss who is the President?

These are depressingly average ways to screw up. Been there done that, but I don't claim to be John Galt either.
