I think he is an interesting guy.

Did analytics for Jim Cramer in high school.

His YouTube tutorials on analysis and using excel are very very good.

pretty based

Followed him on the tube for a while. Not sure if he is still posting. Not sure if he is even out of prison yet. I really stopped keeping up with him, but he was the best man.


Wonder how Martin would have handled Covid?

what Martin Shkreli is doing, and what Merck is doing for charging $700 bucks for a $17 dollar drug already paid for by taxpayer money is no different.

pharma industry gonna pharma, he was just the fall guy for what literally goes on in front of our faces and behind the scenes.

I feel the same was about TRT for men 25+, but I don't want to be banned so I just don't pay attention to problems that are not my own.

There's FDA-approved stuff today which was not approved before he did this BS. I know Accelerationism is kind of cringey, especially when you're hearing it from guys like Tim Pool, but it can have some short-term benefits which would have otherwise been long-term or non-existent (hence accelerating a process).

I am guessing it's not available in the store here yet because of the added risk with people needing to do pct due to high toxicity -- the same as the "no no" stuff except it's legal now (very specific one which does not convert to estrogen)

Little of topic, but I thought PCT was to make sure levels get back to normal and not due to toxicity issues. Is that not correct? Or is that just one portion of the "therapy" equation and there are other things that should be taken to help align liver?

Exactly. He's a troll. Watch his interviews after he was arrested and you will see that he was extremely smug/arrogant about the accusations like he did nothing wrong. Increasing a drug price that keeps people from dying or in the hospital so exponentially in such a short period of time is pure greed. Like okay, they were obviously making money from the epipen(or whatever it was) at the price it was at before, that's why it was priced that way. So why not double it and then make profit? But he increased it many times that.

Unfortunately for him he will have to prove himself in prison as he will deal with people that will test him for his smugness.

Both in my opinion. I have no idea how intense the stuff he has a patent on is for diseases. It was for an infection caused by parasites. I do fasts when I go on PCT. I detox completely. Sometimes will go down to only a multi with protein and walking to give my body a break too. I am maintaining 180-200 for driving, I don't need to be huge, just fast.

he made everyone in his fund a chit load of money.

They just found a way to extort him since his publicity over Daraprim even though what he did is exactly what every drug manufacture does, plus more.

Only difference is if people couldn't afford his drug, he'd literally give it to them for free.

urine idiot. Every pharma company does the same thing.

Dude literally gave out the drug for free to people who couldn't afford it. I'm assuming you have no working knowledge of pharma or drugs for rare diseases

He is in prison for taking money from one investment fund he ran and using it for another investment and not letting the investors know/covering it up. Where he moved the money ended up actually making money

He claims (probably true) that not one of his investors lost money and they all did pretty well.

The medical stuff he did was not illegal

It's still money, correct? Doesn't the misc constantly complain about how they have to pay for the leeches of society that suck the money from hard working paragons of society such as themselves?

How does that apply to shkreli though?

He wasnt funded by tax payer dollars and he want a leech to society. All he did, iirc, was buy the expired patent of a very niche drug and increase the price because the market would accept a higher price.

If you see something wrong in that, its not his fault, hes just playing the game of the American pharmaceutical model.

He didn’t get in trouble for jacking up prices on the pharma stuff.

He did straight up embezzlement and and Ponzi scheme stuff where he took money out of one company, dumped it into another to make it look like it was making money.

He himself admitted it was wrong.

I got no problem with the guy, but let’s not act like the system took him down for exposing the truth behind curtain

one of the best trolls I have seen, obviously a pretty bright guy too.

If anyone is considering watching the Pharma Bro special, let me save you some time...dont do it. It was an hour and a half of strung together B roll of Martin and interviews with people that met him once or twice with no real distinctive plot.
Also a bit awkward because the dude who made the movie was clearly a stalker of his, he actually moved into the same building as Martin to "be closer to him"
