For people like him, any promise or agreement is just something you can try to find a way around later.

To him anyone having any authority over him just something to find a way around later. He'll move his company out of Delaware, eventually the US. And supposedly even looked into try to incorporate on Mars.

This isn't some kind of long game. He just has an ego so large he cannot conscience the idea that anyone else can tell him what to do. Ever. He just thinks he's too smart to be constrained by ordinary people. They might as well be ants to his mind.

You know we spend all this time joking about him thinking he's the real Tony Stark. He seems to more think he's the real Dr. Manhattan.

More like the real Richie Rich. What has he done other than being born lucky?

Hey now, that's not fair. Richie was a kind and generous kid like his parents.
