    Default Martin Shkreli

    Hedge fund manager who got in trouble by The People and the media for jacking up the price of a pharmaceutical. Exhibited other douchey behavior. Got in more trouble. Supposedly he is not a douchebag for reasons I don't really know. Context yadda yadda yadda. I don't really care. He is the same type of a guy I know. What type is he? ILE???





    This interview is hilariously cringey. He's like a real life Michael Scott putting on the Prison Mike persona.


    Haven't seen this one but looks good.

    I get an ILI vibe from him, but ILE would be a close second.

    Ya see, this is what i'm afraid of. If he is ILI, i might actually be something else, but idk.

    I think something that seems uncharacteristic of ILI is his lack of directness with answers but maybe that's also because he's afraid of getting into hot water. If he is ILI I could most readily see a comparison to David Mitchell who i think is ILI-Te. That might be a stretch though. He reminds me of this guy i know who I originally thought was gamma NT then changed his typing to IEE then finally settled on Alpha NT and more likely ILE. He also vaguely reminds me of this youtuber Egoraptor who seems to be ILE.

    Ni ego. IP > EJ, but anything's possible. His hip-hop beefs are hilarious.

    I would say LIE for this guy. He is a competitive, initiative-taking entrepreneur, dry and matter-of-fact in communication. Describes his decisions as pragmatic ventures and seems unperturbed about the loss of popularity.

    LIE-Ni. His brand of douchiness isn't really ILI, although I agree he seems irrational at first sight. He's probably just right between LIE and ILI. He's also too quickly respondant to questions and noise on the street, speaks too quickly and is too smiley for Ni-dom imo.

    I still think he seems irrational over rational, but I agree that he seems extraverted. The Breakfast club interview made me think Fi polr so I'm torn.

    I also don't get Fe role from him, and I can see some ILI-ish aspects so i think ILE=ILI>LIE.

    Ok, yeah, he's ILI. Still socially cringey, but i can see it. Maybe not a bad guy either (at least not for the jacking up the price thing)

    More ILI than ILE
    -
    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    ILE is a good guess but I'd go with the ILE's dual type for him: SEI sp/sx 3w2, duals often happen to resemble each other. If you watch him and h3h3 side by side there are a lot of similarities in their mannerisms, and that smooth&suave Si e3 style of talking. Shkeli is irrational and in the Si/Ne quadra.

    I'll take a wild guess and say that he's Te-ILI.

    This video gave me the impression that he's a beta ST.

    I just saw this claim and it's big if true, but I'm busy before work. I'll be back but maybe smbdy else wants to look into it.

    Many people know Martin Shkreli for raising the price of Daraprim to over $700 per dose. What most don't know is that this was only the price for insured people. He made the drug $1/free for uninsured people. He subsidized healthcare for less fortunate people with insurance money

    All I can find in the 5 minutes I'm willing to spend is an old article that quotes him. But somebody sticking it to medical insurance companies and then getting bad press wouldn't shock me, lol

    Shkreli says that for people without insurance it will cost only $1 a pill. For everyone else, insurance, which he argues is paid for by corporate America’s profits, will cover the cost. “I’m like Robin Hood,” he continues. “I’m taking Walmart’s money and doing research for diseases no one cares about.”

    Reviving since he's out now. While I'm at it, casting my vote for ILI.
