Is he "Howard Hughes" ?

answer Sep 29, 2016 by Smriti

Yes, you are correct!

He was actually one of my role models until I switched over to Bill Gates. But now I'm leaning more toward Stephen Hawking. It's amazing having ALS for the past 40 years that he's still alive, and just sitting in wheelchair.

Thus proving that laziness is the key to longevity.
