When he got diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, he treated it with eating fruits, and using his private jet to get fresh livers every once in a while, jumping the que so that patients that deserved those livers and would care for them properly didn’t get them, and die instead.
Through a legal, little-known practice called multiple listing, Jobs doubled his odds by getting on waiting lists in California and Tennessee. Competition was too stiff back home in California, and Jobs, his wealth and fame notwithstanding, may have died waiting. But in mere weeks he jumped to the top of the list in Memphis, ahead of dozens of others.
“Instead, he tried a vegan diet, acupuncture, herbal remedies, and other treatments he found online, and even consulted a psychic. He was also influenced by a doctor who ran a clinic that advised juice fasts, bowel cleansings and other unproven approaches, before finally having surgery in July 2004.”
Jobs did not receive chemotherapy or radiation therapy
And that required him to get an organ transplant. Had he gotten treated earlier that wouldn’t have been necessary. Someone else could’ve gotten the organ transplant instead.
He was able to get the transplant by being on every waiting list in the US. Most people can’t do that because you have to be able get to the hospital within a certain time frame. But because Jobs had a private jet, he could be on all of the waiting lists.
For a quarter of a million? Yeah, that’s an appropriate question difficulty.
But jesus christ I can see why the man died of preventable cancer.
*treatable
It was preventable by not eating exclusively fruits
I’m sorry, what? A diet rich in fruits leads to pancreatic cancer!?

Fucking Visionary. This from a long line of bangers known as “yeah, I abandoned my daughter, then named a product after her” and “Fuck your files, I’ll put them wherever I goddamn please, you don’t know what you want, consumer”
He tried to prove alternative spiritual based medicine was legit by using himself as a case study, he didn’t seek REAL help until it was far too late.

I can respect that he was genuine in his irrational conviction.
He was genuine until it was too late, at which point he took up a liver transplant that could’ve gone to someone else had he not been an idiot.
yeah thats only about him, so not that bad. didn’t he treat his family like shit, too?
He treated everyone like shit. He was a scumbag in general.
yeah, I thought so.
