Landing on the moon, going to Mars, traveling in space, challenging the Mariana Trench... The most fashionable way of communication among foreign billionaires is no longer luxury cars and mansions, but "going to the sea". But a small part of this group of rich people is still addicted to low-level fun, succumbing to the most primitive desires of mankind, and the means are extremely cruel.
Recently, 60-year-old Silicon Valley tycoon and billionaire Michael Gogan was exposed to a sex scandal, he not only got his own "harem", recorded a detailed list of 5,000 women who have had relationships with him, in fact, there are many underage girls. At the same time, Gaugen also threatened the company's employees to use money and material manipulation to lure women and cooperate with him to commit illegal crimes.
Gaugan was a former member of Sequoia Capital and has successfully invested in Google, YouTube and PayPal. In 2015, he was also featured on Forbes' list. However, such a successful person is doing the work of "human face and animal heart". He also unabashedly declared to the outside world, "Young girls are the source of my eternal youth."
The Silicon Valley tycoon was accused by four former employees of the security company "Emint Group" in February 2021, and his "dream of affair" disappeared. However, the rich and powerful will obviously not stop here, they are on the road to "love beauty", history is always surprisingly similar...

84-year-old former king of Spain: 5,000 lovers in his lifetime, trench to send a single mother 65 million euros
Reports show that in October last year, the 83-year-old Spanish king Carlos was tragically "chemically castrated" because he was too "enthusiastic" for women, which rose to a serious national problem. It is reported that this "heart-wrenching" plan was secretly carried out by the old king's nemesis, the former director of the intelligence center, Sans: we had no other way to do it, to reduce his X desire.
In fact, long before the secret news was detonated, the old king's affair had already been full of storms in the city. Former Spanish high-ranking official Martinez once said bluntly in the book "The King's 5,000 Mistresses": before going to college (16-21 years old), Carlos had 627 lovers; before he married (22-24 years old), he had 403 wonderful lovers; after marrying Queen Sophia, he (25-37 years old) still "loved beauty" and had a special relationship with 804 women; since 1975, after being knocked out by Queen Sophia, Carlos has entered the "era of passion" - He sings with 2,154 spice girls around the world, including popular movie star Saramon Tieer.
There is no doubt that the old king Carlos is more "partial" to women. In order to sing with the lovers night and night, the latter even hesitated to use the state finances, which was a shocking act. According to media reports, in 2012, Carlos gave 65 million euros to a British lover, who is a single mother of two children.

The incredible "ageless" list of billionaires
In response, Sans, a close ally who can't stand it, can only "chemically castrate-cut" the 84-year-old time management master in the name of "national security" to weaken his power. I have to say that the old king Carlos and the Silicon Valley tycoon Gogan's encounter is similar, which can be called a difficult brother.
Perhaps ordinary people can not understand why Carlos is keen on affair, the answer may come from a bizarre "secret method" of the aristocratic circles of Europe's dark period: women are the source of youth. And the power of the monstrous such as Gao Gen and Carlos undoubtedly has the essence of it.
In fact, it is no secret that "regaining youth" is in the top rich circles abroad. Silicon Valley's top tycoon and PayPal co-founder Deere (58) invests millions of dollars a year to obtain fresh blood from 18-year-old volunteers, the purpose of which is only to remain active at 150 years old; SpaceX founder and mother of "tech madman" MuskCoe (73 years old), in order to retain her youthful appearance, she tries to use telomere-enhancing substances similar to "cause", which has been confirmed by harvard, Cambridge, Keio University and other world-renowned laboratories as the main path to inhibit aging; "Oil King" Rockefeller was so rich that he changed his heart six times in his life at a cost of $200 million, but managed to stay alive until he was 101 years old.
Compared with the crazy paranoia of foreign rich people about "shou", domestic rich people are more rational. The cutting-edge technology with many sources of verification in the laboratories of famous universities is obviously more in line with the taste of the latter. According to media reports, the forerunner is the former Chinese rich businessman surnamed Li, in a public place in 2018, the super-rich did not hide his love for similar "original cause" telomere-enhancing substances, and regarded it as a forward-looking technology to return to 20-year-old youth, and even triggered a wave of shippers in Beijing-East. In the past two years, the rich people of The Lee family who appeared in front of the public have obviously surpassed many ordinary people, and it is undeniable that science and technology are making the "end point" of the rich more imaginative.

Can humanity really break through the 120-year-old limit in the future?
Ray Kurzweil, a Google scientist, president of Singularity University and author of Singularity Near, has said, "In my opinion, by 2029 or so, humanity will reach a tipping point." Every year, human life expectancy can be extended by one year, thanks to the development of science and technology to that time. At that time, human lifespan will no longer be calculated from the date of birth to the time of life, but instead the lifespan that humans will extend every year will be longer than the time they have already passed. ”
However, in the real world, it is often the small circle of rich people who can enjoy the most cutting-edge life science and technology and top medical resources, such as you and me, who are more full of helplessness in the face of life, old age, illness and death.
But if life science and technology only serve the rich and powerful and money, and do not involve the general public, then what is the point of it? If it is true that as Ray kurzweil predicted, what should ordinary people do, this is the ultimate proposition that deserves the reflection of all mankind.
