That is why I stated I didn't necessarily have a problem with it in this specific case. I was trying to make the point that I didn't see it as a viable business model for every business.

If this business model were used in a hospital, however, the heart surgeon would be paid the same as the front desk clerk downstairs, correct?

I am in agreement that he doesn't deserve sympathy, and he waived his right to come back with filing bankruptcy and fraud, but IF he did obtain the property and materials legitimately, LEGALLY he should have been given some compensation for it. He sounds like a real asshole and I have no sympathy for him as a person.
